After ‘Udta Punjab’, Censor Board objects to ‘Haraamkhor’

After much debate, the central board finally cleared ‘Udta Punjab’ to release with��just one cut, but they’ve move on to object to Nawazuddin’s Siddiqui’s ‘Haraamkhor’.

‘Haraamkhor’ deals with the illicit relationship between an fourteen year old girl and her tuition teacher. As according to the Hindustan Times, the producer Guneet Monga said, “They said they can’t give us a certificate because the entire theme of the movie is objectionable.�� I told them what do you mean its objectionable? This sort of thing happens, and this film has been screened in Mumbai, it has won awards and accolades in many places around the world and people have connected with it.��You don’t want to��hear the same thing again and again.”

A source close to the production house revealed, “Their (the CBFC’s) main issue is that teacher are revered people in society and they can’t be shown having an affair with an underage girl. They also had some objections with the depiction of children making lewd gestures, using profanity, and committing acts of violence”

‘Haraamkhor’ is directed by Shlok Sharma and stars Shweta Tripathi alongside Siddiqui.
