Press Council of India (PCI) Chairman Justice Markandey Katju
on Monday ruled out any action against Sunny Leone, the porn star who
recently participated in the Indian reality television show, Bigg Boss 5 .
Broadcasting Content Complaints Council (BCCC), an independent body instituted by the Indian Broadcasters Foundation ( IBF) received several complaints that Sunny Leone was promoting her personal pornography website with the help of her Indian reality TV performance.
Her homepage, the complaints said, prominently advertised: 'As seen on Bigg Boss Season 5, now watch her strip down and be naughty and see why the world is obsessed with Sunny Leone.'
However, on Monday, PCI chairman, Justice Katju while responding to a complaint by a viewer on the lack of action by the BCCC, ruled out any action against her. He said that Sunny Leone had behaved in an acceptable manner in the country.
''If she (Leone) conducts herself in India in a manner which is socially acceptable in India and does not breach the social moral code in India, we should not treat her as a social outcast,'' Katju said.
He added that in his opinion the Big Boss participant Sunny Leone was earning her livelihood in USA in a manner acceptable in that country, though it is not acceptable in India.
