Netflix has removed Nayanthara's recently released film, 'Annapoorani', after calls against the film hurting 'Hindu sentiments' grew louder. An FIR was filed against the film by Ramesh Solanki, founder of the Hindu IT cell. Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) spokesperson, Shriraj Nair, had warned Netflix to take down the film.

Directed by Nilesh Krishnaa, 'Annapoorani' released in theatres on December 1 and began streaming on Netflix on December 29. Within a week, many outfits took offence to the film's content, which they claimed to be 'anti-Hindu'.
