[Mumbai] Crime Thriller Udta Punjab Is Censored Bollywood Slams Censorship
Filmmakers including Karan Johar, Mahesh Bhatt, Ram Gopal Varma among others today criticised Censor Board of Film Certification (CBFC) for censoring the content of upcoming film “Udta Punjab”.
The Abhishek Chaubey-directed movie, co-produced by Phantom and Balaji Films, deals with the Drug abuse in Northern part of the state and its effects on the youth.
The strong reactions from the film industry came after the Censor Board purportedly raised certain objections regarding references to Punjab.It has been said the Shahid Kapoor-Kareena Kapoor Khan starrer might have to undergo some changes due to the board’s disapproval.
Sudhir Mishra, who has had his share of run-ins with the board , tweeted, “No film should be censored. Only be certified.
Lot of blood, sweat has gone into the making. But the answer is to make brave films.” Bhatt, whose daughter Alia is playing one of the leads in the film, said censorship is similar to ignorance.
Actor Ranvir Shorey requested Prime Minister Narendra Modi to intervene into the matter.
