On May 2, NCW issued a strong-worded statement condemning the vulgar content, stating that it undermines women’s dignity and sets a harmful example for digital entertainment. "It disregards the fundamental principles of consent, promotes sexual coercion under the guise of entertainment, and fails to follow any age-appropriate censorship guidelines," said NCW Chairperson Vijaya Rahatkar.
