Priyanka’s ‘Baywatch’ bikini shots cut for Indian audiences?

Last week, BizAsiaLive.com reported on CBFC’s concerns about the swimsuit shots in the forthcoming ‘Baywatch’ which stars Priyanka Chopra. Now, it’s being said that her bikini shots have been cut.

It seems that CBFC wanted to be mindful of the younger audiences and for the more cultural viewers. A source told Asian Age, “Priyanka in beachwear is perfectly fine. And we do have a thriving beachside culture in many parts of coastal India. However, she is a superstar with a slightly more conservative fan following in India, which may not be too happy with her bikini shots beyond a point.”

“Indian audiences like to see our leading ladies in bikinis for only one shot or sequence. That’s why Baywatch may be released in India with some of Priyanka’s beachside shots  reduced. But the cuts are nothing substantial”, the source concluded.

The film will see Chopra in a negative character in what is her Hollywood debut film.
