The Central Board Of Film Certification (CBFC), popularly known as Censor Board, has deleted a few raunchy scenes in the trailer of Vidya Balan's film The Dirty Picture, Times of India reported.
The Censor Board objected to the second trailer of Ekta Kapoor's film, directed by Milan Luthria.
The officials felt that the trailer in question is too explicit and thus not fit for theatrical or television exhibition, unless it is given an A certificate.
A source revealed, “The producers wanted a U/A for the trailer. They wanted the promo to be shown with as many films as possible starting with Pankaj Kapur's Mausam, which is expected to hit the theatres next week.”
The censors had objected to various scenes in the trailer and the producers had to make quite a few changes to it.
“A lovemaking scene between Vidya Balan and Naseeruddin Shah in the car has been removed. Certain abusive words in Shah's dialogue have been muted,” revealed the source and quickly added, “But the entire un-cut trailer is still available on the web.”
Balaji Motion Pictures' CEO, Tanuj Garg said, “The Censor Board felt that a few scenes and words in the trailer might not be appropriate for television and for people watching a U/A film in cinemas. On the other hand, we were clear that we needed a U/A. Hence, we complied with their requests.”
