A Goa legislator wants the chief minister to complain to the Censor Board over the depiction of the state and Christian priests in the film, Kyaa Super Kool Hain Hum (KSKHH), that released last week. Reginaldo Lourenco, a Congress legislator from Cortalim, told the legislative assembly that the character of the priest, played by actor Chunky Pandey, was disrespectful to Christianity and projected Goa in bad light. “The film is showing Goa and Christian priests in a bad light. This should not be allowed,” Lourenco had said.

Responding to the request, chief minister Manohar Parrikar said, “Censor Board jurisdiction lies with the central government, not the state government. The Censor Board should check that no religious group should be offended in the film. If you give me a complaint in writing, I will take it up with the Censor Board.
