[tps_footer]James Bond‘s upcoming movie ‘Spectre’ has become a little more sanskari thanks to Indian CBFC who have reduced the length of all kissing scenes. Internet has been trending with the hashtag #SanskariJamesBond mocking the lengths to which the Indian government will go in order to cut down on the erotic scenes shown in the film. Apparently the film has been certified U/A and for the same reason the board has been more cautious about what will be screened. And hence it was decided to cut down the length of long kissing scenes between the lead actors of the film.

CBFC board member Ashoke Pandit opened up about this situation through a tweet stating, “Pahlaj Nihalani has always functioned on his own accord and I don’t subscribe to his curtailing of creative rights…. Spectre is an internationally applauded film, but again Pahalaj Nihalani messes it up by shading it with his own thought process. Nihalani’s action should not be a reflection of my choices. I feel it’s a mockery of the freedom of a filmmaker…Nihalani as chairman of the censor Board can’t behave like an official spokesperson of a political party.”
