Everyday we hear about movie ban and protest against movies. Some or the other film comes in discussion due to its headlines. Talking about the film Loveratri made in Salman Khan's production house or Sanjay Leela Bhansali's film Padmavat. There has been a lot of opposition from everyone for Kanagan Ranaut's film Manikarnika and the ban of these films has also come to light. This process of banning films is years old.

When films were shown only in video and not audio, the process of banning news has started. The first film of Indian cinema which was banned in 1921' is 'Bhakta Vidur'. The film was based on the story of Lord Sri Krishna and Vidura. When the first glimpse of this film was brought in front of everyone, the actor playing the character of Vidur in it has appeared exactly like Mahatma Gandhi.

In this film, Vidur was played by actor Dwarka Das Nana Das Sampat and he also wore the same clothes as Gandhiji. These clothes did not suit the British government and they immediately banned it, taking cognizance of it. The government believed that these films could create resentment among people. So the censor board banned the film saying "We know what you are doing. It is not Vidur. We cannot allow it to be released."
