Netflix pulled an Indian film from its platform just days after it began streaming after backlash from right-wing Hindu groups, reports say.
"Annapoorani: the Goddess of Food," a film made in the southern Indian state of Tamil Nadu, follows a young woman from the Brahmin caste as she aspires to become one of India's best chefs. It was released in theaters in December and on Netflix later the same month.
