The Indian Censor Board has done it again! It has demonstrated just how useless and draconian it is as a government body! This time around it has released a list of banned words/curses that will be cut from films if they are used. Say goodbye to freedom of expression and hello to an even more undemocratic and tyrannical stand on profanities in films. Since anyone and everyone has decided to become the moral police in our country these days, get ready to watch films that will be utterly sanitized and probably wiped clean with Ganga jal.
In order to show just how absurd this new rule is, we decided to compile a list of films that would never have seen the light of day had the #CurseList ban been applied to them. The surprising part: these are some of India’s finest films, many of which have won National Awards! Our stand:Pahlaj Nihalani, the present Censor Board chief, should take a look at his own sub-standard and “vulgar” films before making such an unreasonable and anti-democratic law. We do not support it in any way. The Censor Board’s job is to issue appropriate “A, /U/A, and U” certificates for films and not indulge in such curtailing of personal and artistic freedoms.
