Pahlaj Nihalani has really taken a chill pill this time. Shaad Ali’s film ‘OK Jaanu’ has been granted an ‘all-clear’ by the censor board. One can never predict what CBFC is up to! After Ranveer Singh’s butt shot in Befikre, he has also passed this live-in relationship romance without any major alterations.
A source said, “Only four verbal cuts were ordered. And these were minor alterations in the dialogue. Surprisingly, the censor board had no objection with the theme of live-in relationship.”
In an interview, when censor chief Pahlaj Nihalani was asked about the sudden change over a year, and he said:
“The times are changing. At one time couples couldn’t even meet before marriage. Now, they get a chance to spend time with one another to know whether they are compatible or not. That’s a social reality. We must recognize and respect the changes in social mores.”
Good going Mr. Nihalani, if this sensibility continues we might be able to enjoy good cinema in coming years.
