The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has intervened in the upcoming romantic drama film Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya, making alterations to certain scenes and dialogue.
Scene Alterations
The CBFC has made significant cuts to a scene depicting a sexual act in the movie. According to Bollywood Hungama, the scene has been trimmed by 25%, with nine seconds of the sequence censored. The intimate moment, initially lasting 36 seconds, now clocks in at 27 seconds. Additionally, in the latter half of the film, the term ‘daru’ (alcohol) has been substituted with ‘drink’.
Audio Medication and Other Adjustments
Beyond scene edits, the CBFC has mandated an ‘audio medication’ for the film. Furthermore, they’ve directed the film’s team to incorporate an anti-smoking static message in Hindi, presented in larger, more legible fonts.
