The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has issued a U/A 16+ rating for the upcoming romantic drama Chand Mera Dil, starring Ananya Panday and Lakshya, but not without imposing strict edits.
The board ordered the removal of nearly 96 seconds of intimate scenes, including the total replacement of a prominent 10-second kissing sequence.
This stringent move by censors has reignited a fierce online debate regarding artistic freedom, contemporary censorship standards, and maturity ratings within the rapidly evolving Indian mainstream film landscape.
