40 cuts by CBFC make 'Udta Punjab' bleed!


More than 40 cuts for Abhishek Choubey's Udta Punjab were ordered by the Central Board Of Film Certification (CBFC). These, according to a source, include any number of expletives, plus a song. Visuals of substance abuse were also asked to be removed.The film's leading man Shahid Kapoor is a drug addict and is shown to be a serial abuser.

Rather than go to the Revising Committee of the CBFC, producer Anurag Kashyap went straight to the Tribunal in the hope of a hasty clearance with nominal cuts. Alternatively, the Minister of Information & Broadcasting Rajyavardhan Rathore has also been approached to clear the film with an A' certificate, sans cuts.

How much swearing does this time anurag has invented in this that censor board is so harsh on his film?

I am sure it must be beyond any of his previous films including gang of waseypur series.

Why don't they just give it an A certificate and let adults decide if they want to watch it or not?

Anurag's every film is A certified, this time he has gone above A, may be in R rated section.
