After omitting the controversial lezim sequence in the upcoming movie Chhaava, the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has suggested a series of changes in the Laxman Utekar directorial as it gears up for its release on February 14. From replacing certain words to not hurt the audience's sentiment to deleting sequences that demean history, the Censor Board has left no stone unturned to avoid any form of controversies later.
According to a report by Bollywood Hungama, the film has been granted a U/A 16+ certificate by the CBFC. The board has also asked makers to remove the scene that shows Maratha warriors wearing a saree. Besides that, the dialogue, 'Mughal sultanat ka zeher' has been replaced with 'Uss samay, kayi shaasak aur sultanat khud ko zinda rakhne ki koshish kar rahe the'. Also, 'Khoon toh aakhir Mughalon ka hi hai' was changed to 'Khoon toh hai Aurang ka hi'. Certain words like 'haramzaadon' and 'haramzaada' were muted while 'Aameen' was replaced with 'Jai Bhavani'.
