Court Allows New Show About Criminal

Introduction

A court says a ZEE5 show about Lawrence Bishnoi can start. But the show must change its name.

Main Body

The government stopped the show first. The police said the show makes crime look good. They feared people would copy the criminal. Some leaders and lawyers also hated the show. They said young people might like criminals. The government deleted many social media posts about gangsters before. The makers of the show said the information is public. A judge watched the show. He said the show does not make the criminal look like a hero.

Conclusion

The show can start now. It only needs a new name.

⚡ The Power of 'MAKE'

In this story, we see the word make used in a special way. It doesn't mean 'building something.' It means 'causing a feeling' or 'creating a result.'

Look at these examples from the text:

  • "make crime look good" → Result: Crime seems attractive.
  • "make the criminal look like a hero" → Result: The bad guy seems like a good person.

💡 A2 Rule: How to use it Make + Person/Thing + Adjective/Description

Everyday Examples:

  • This movie makes me sad.
  • The sun makes the room warm.
  • Your jokes make me happy.

Quick Note: Use this pattern when you want to describe how one thing changes the feeling of another thing.
