Disney-owned streaming video service Hotstar came under fire from the popular host of the eponymous late-night show “Last Week Tonight with John Oliver” last night, for censoring supposedly controversial content from the program in India.
While Hotstar didn’t air Oliver’s critical episode on India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi, it made edits to few other episodes containing references to drugs and sex that might reflect ‘poorly’ on Disney. In an episode aired last night, he pointed out at least two instances of censorship.
