Rakhi Sawant’s Latest Target is Censor Board

The queen of controversies, Rakhi Sawant, has struck once again, and her latest victim is the Censor board.

After her soon to be released film ‘Ek Kahani Julie Ki’ was awarded an A certificate, Rakhi expressed her dissatisfaction over the working attitude of Censor Board, and she demanded for the complete removal of Censor Board. She even offered to make amendments in the working process if she were made the Censor Board Chief replacing Pahlaj Nihalani.

Expressing anguish over her film getting an A certificate, Rakhi took a jibe at Sunny Leone saying that she was not a porn star. She also said that her films are always targeted by the Censor Board for having even minor matured content whereas many mainstream films starring big heroes easily get U certificates despite having adult comedy and too much violence.

Rakhi’s criticism is being seen as nothing but another publicity stunt.

A senior police official confirmed that the film’s director, Abhishek Chaubey, gave a written complaint requesting the police to look into the issue as the film was leaked on the torrents just days before its scheduled theatrical release on June 17, this Friday.

The leaked version has a watermark which suggests that the copy was submitted to the Central Board of Film Certification. The makers are extremely worried that people would watch the leaked version before its theatrical release and it might lead to significant loss of business.

It may be noted that Udta Punjab had earlier created a huge stir after the CBFC refused to certify the film unless the makers did not agree to 89 cuts including the deletion of the word ‘Punjab’ from the title. Finally, the Bombay High Court declared the verdict in film’s favor.

Makers are worried that if the cuts are implemented, the movie will not live up to the expectations raised by the trailer.

The Indian censor board has lifted the ban on re-certification of Adult films so that they can be screened on Television. The censor board has lifted this ban after many requests from the broadcasters and the filmmakers.

The CBFC had stopped the practice of modifying A certificate films for TV in January this year. Since then, the broadcasters and producers have been demanding to lift the ban.

The Chairperson of CBFC, Pahlaj Nihalani, said that the CBFC now allows producers who have films with ‘A’ certificate to make voluntarily cuts to the films for TV screening.

Satellite right is a major source of revenue for filmmakers and with this decision, even the films with A certificate can now be screened on TV. Filmmakers can earn some extra bucks by selling the satellite rights of A certificate films that were impossible to sell earlier.

MSG-2, which was written, directed and music composed given by Ram Rahim. Hakikat Entertainment Pvt. Ltd. has produced this movie. This is the sequel of MSG that was released in February 2015. This movie was released on 18th of this month in Hindi and is ready to hit the theatres on 1st of October in Telugu. On this occasion, Ram Rahim spoke with the Telugu media in Mumbai.

“MSG that released in February is made on drugs racket and the youth getting attracted towards it. The film showcases how youth gets spoiled entering into the wrong stream and how our country is facing problems with it. The second part is released in this month and minted around Rs 102 cr. This made my belief stronger that message combined with comedy will always workout. To express something good to the society doesn’t have any language barrier. That’s the reason we are releasing it in Tamil and Telugu.

This film has a lot of stuff to look after. Action scenes are being received well; stunt masters warned me of having a body double, I didn’t have body double and performed action sequences on my own. When I did the first film Bollywood didn’t receive it well. They expressed their doubts over me. But as the second one released, a positive response came from all over. We are also planning to do a T.V series with some entertainment and message filled in it.” Ram Rahim said.
