There was notable criticism surrounding cuts made to films like <em>Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai<\/em> and <em>Bandar<\/em>. Furthermore, the CBFC faced backlash over its request for cuts in key scenes from <em>Obsession<\/em>, which sparked significant social media outrage.<\/p>\n<p>However, in a surprising turn of events this week, the CBFC has approved three major films without any cuts. <\/p>\n<p>One of these is <em>Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata<\/em>, starring Kangana Ranaut, which focuses on the 26\/11 terror attacks. This film received a U\/A 16+ rating on May 29 and, despite its thrilling premise and some violent content, the Examining Committee found no reason for cuts. The film has a runtime of 127.13 minutes, equating to over two hours.<\/p>\n<p>Vikram Bhatt&#8217;s horror film <em>Haunted \u2013 Echoes Of The Past<\/em> also got the green light. Like his previous film <em>Haunted<\/em> from 2011, this new project will be shown in 3D and has been rated \u2018A\u2019. Typically, such films are subject to more scrutiny due to their intense scenes. Nevertheless, <em>Haunted \u2013 Echoes Of The Past<\/em> received an uncensored release, running for 138.54 minutes, or approximately 2 hours and 19 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>The third film, <em>Backrooms<\/em>, was approved with an \u2018A\u2019 rating and no cuts on June 8. The science fiction psychological horror movie has a length of 110.54 minutes, or nearly 1 hour and 51 minutes. There\u2019s a bit of curiosity surrounding <em>Backrooms<\/em>, especially since it has gained popularity, much like <em>Obsession<\/em>. Some viewers, however, may be cautious as there&#8217;s a possibility that some disturbing scenes were altered or removed prior to the film&#8217;s submission to the CBFC.<\/p>\n<p>In summary, the CBFC&#8217;s recent decisions have sparked discussions, both positive and negative, about the future of film censorship in India.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has recently come under fire for its decisions regarding film cuts.
