All you need to know about Richard Gere Kissing case

Way back on April 15, 2007, Richard Gere and Shilpa Shetty came together at an event in Sanjay Gandhi Transport Nagar in Delhi. During the event, Gere kissed Shetty on her cheeks in order to spread a message that kissing was safe and would not lead to the transmission of HIV.

Following this Bhoopsingh Ramjilal had filed a complaint before the judicial magistrate court in Mundawar in Rajasthan, seeking registration of offence against both the actors for kissing in public.

Later a case was registered under sections 292 (sale etc. of obscene material), 293 (sale etc. of obscene objects to a young person), 294 (doing an obscene act in a public place to the annoyance of others) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and under section 67 (publishing or transmitting obscene material in electronic form) of the Information Technology Act, 2000, and sections 4 (to produce, sell etc. material containing indecent representation of women) and 6 (the penalty for breach of section 4) of the Indecent Representation of Women (Prohibition) Act, 1986.

Tarla is releasing on 7th July on ZEE5.
