Lawyer Zainal Mazhari wrote in the legal notice that OTT platforms are misleading the next generation by spreading obscenity and making easy money in the absence of specific policies.
"We want film production authorities to bring healthy films under the rules. Let our children learn something by watching those movies. What is there to learn in these films? Hopefully, the authorities will look into the matter and stop it," he added.
Earlier, he also sent a legal notice to actress Sadia Jahan Prova regarding her viral scandal 13 years ago and asked her to publicly apologise.
