Janhvi Kapoor on Ranveer Singh's photoshoot: It is artistic freedom

Bollywood actor Janhvi Kapoor says Ranveer Singh has a freedom to express as an artiste and should not be “penalised” for it.

Singh is at the centre of a controversy over his bare-bodied photographs shot for an international magazine. The _Gully Boy_ star is facing an FIR in Mumbai following a complaint from an NGO alleging that he had “hurt the sentiments of women in general and insulted their modesty through his photographs.”

“I think it is our freedom and I don’t think anyone should be penalised for their artistic freedom,” Kapoor told reporters at an event on Friday.
