Makers of Kangana Ranaut and Rajkummar Rao starrer "Mental Hai Kya" on Saturday denied that the film discriminates against people battling mental health issues and in fact encourages the audience to "embrace their individuality".
The response from the production house Balaji Motion Pictures comes a day after the Indian Psychiatric Society (IPS) wrote a letter to the censor board to object against the film's recently released posters.
In a letter addressed to CBFC chairperson Prasoon Joshi, the IPS had also objected to the title of the movie and said it was "discriminative, stigmatising, degrading and inhuman in projecting mental disorders and persons who suffer from mental disorders."
