Censor board should facilitate a film rather than stopping it

  • Censor board has a certain disregard for creative freedom as they have demanded 48 cuts in
  • Nawauddin Siddiqui’s Babumoshai Bandookbaaz and CBFC chairman Nihalani once again faced criticism from the industry people
  • Reacting to this decision from CBFC, Kher said, “I don’t think, it should be personality oriented.
  • I don’t think Pehlaj Nihalani is doing all that but having said that I feel Censor Board need to re look at them.
  • They are more and more coming across as people who know how to stop a film rather than how to facilitate the film.
  • I have been Censor Board chairman for 1 year.
  • There are rule books and guide lines but seeing that anyone can interpret things in their
  • own way and by following that you can ban any film and any release.
  • We live in 21st century so we can watch anything on internet. I feel there is need of self-regulation”.
