James Cameron's highly anticipated film "Avatar" is being questioned by concerned Hindus, who are asking the Oscar Award-winning filmmaker to attach a disclaimer in the film to tell viewers it has nothing to do with Hinduism.

The 3-D sci-fi epic film describes how humans employ Avatars to evacuate aliens from their forests. It is set for December 18 release.

Unfortunately, Avatar, a Sanskrit term meaning descent or incarnation, is also the central theme in Hinduism.

Hindus, led by The Universal Society of Hinduism president Rajan Zed, want Cameron to include a disclaimer in the beginning and end of the film to tell audience that the movie has nothing to do with Hinduism or its concepts.

Jewish leader, Rabbi Jonathan B. Freirich, is supporting the Hindus in this issue, saying Cameron should respect the feelings of the devotees. Nevada Clergy Association has also urged the "Titanic" director to put the disclaimer.
