Two Muslim organisations Thursday said that they would file a public interest litigation (PIL) against filmmaker Akbar Khan for allegedly distorting history in the recently released "Taj Mahal- An Eternal Love Story".

"Akbar Khan has distorted history in his 'Taj Mahal'. And the portrayal of characters are simply not in accordance with Muslim culture and sentiments," said Mohammad Sajid, president of the All India Minorities Lawyers' Association (AIMLA).

"To protest the negative depiction of Noorjahan's character, we have decided to file a PIL against Akbar Khan in Delhi High Court," Sajid told reporters.

Sajid, who is also a Supreme Court lawyer, said that his organisation was in touch with other Muslim bodies and the PIL would be filed by Dec 5.

All Ulema Council president Mohammad Arif Al-Hussaini said the filmmaker should have read history properly before making a period film.

"The depiction of Noorjahan's illicit relationship with Mohabbat Khan is outrageous and far removed from history. The filmmaker should have read history before making a film on such a great subject.

"The character that he has distorted in his movie is very respected and the filmmaker should have handled it more sensitively," Al-Hussaini said.

He said lovemaking scenes in the movies were also objectionable.

"It's a marketing gimmick and Akbar Khan made it insensitively just to make some quick money. It's full of nudity and against our cultural ethos," he alleged.
