SHOCKING: Heer Sara Aur Pondicherry retitled Heer Sara after CBFC objection

The Patralekhaa and Maanvi Gagroo-starrer Heer Sara Aur Pondicherry was initially scheduled to release on May 29. Four days before its release, the makers announced that the film had been pushed to June 12. They also revealed that the film had been retitled Heer Sara. Bollywood Hungama has learned that the delay and change in title happened due to the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). A source told Bollywood Hungama, “A few scenes and themes didn’t seem acceptable to the CBFC’s Examining Committee, which viewed the film. The process took a while, due to which the makers decided to delay the film’s release by two weeks.” The source further said, “Also, ‘Pondicherry’ was asked to be axed from the title. The CBFC members were of the opinion that the film has certain mature content, which should not be associated with the Union Territory.” The cut list of Heer Sara mentions that the title of the film was modified. The makers were also told to delete a derogatory word in the seco...

EXCLUSIVE: After 2 weeks of backlash, CBFC springs a pleasant surprise this week; clears Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata, Haunted - Echoes Of The Past, Backrooms with ZERO cuts

The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has faced heavy scrutiny in the last two weeks. The cuts given to Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai and Bandar were criticized. Meanwhile, CBFC asked for cuts in two crucial scenes in Obsession and it led to a huge uproar on social media which continued for many days. Meanwhile, this week, the CBFC has sprung a pleasant surprise by passing three crucial films with zero cuts. The Kangana Ranaut-starrer Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata, based on the 26/11 terror attacks, was passed with a U/A 16+ rating on May 29. Despite a thriller film with violent scenes, the CBFC’s Examining Committee (EC) found no reason to ask for any cuts. The length of Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata, as mentioned on the censor certificate, is 127.13 minutes. In other words, the film is 2 hours, 7 minutes and 13 seconds long. Vikram Bhatt returns with Haunted – Echoes Of The Past this week. Like Haunted (2011), this horror film will also be released in 3D. It has been rated ‘A’ and usu...
