‘Ishqiya’ has created buzz due to its intense scenes and foul language. But surprisingly, the film got ‘A’ certificate from Indian film sensor board without any cuts!
Director of the film Abhishek Choubey told reporters, “Frankly, I expected I’d be asked for some kind of an explanation for the language and content and why they were necessary. I had gone prepared with dossiers on every graphic word and shot. To my surprise I wasn’t asked for any explanation. I was given an ‘Adults’ certificate with no cuts at all. I guess it’s a sign of how far censorship has come in our country.”
Though censor board apparently had some problems related to the language and some scenes but finally saw the reasons. And later on they passed the film.
Director Abhishek explained, “I never claimed the film was for children. The content is adult. So I’ve no problem with the ‘A’ certificate. I feel the profile of the audience is changing swiftly.”
Abhishek also added that the language is not as strong as people think. “It’s not about creating shock value. It’s the way these people in the small North Indian towns live their life.”
Produced by Raman Maroo and Vishal Bharadwaj, ‘Ishqiya’ has stars like Naseeruddin Shah, Arshad Warsi and Vidya Balan in the lead roles.
