Hollywood films, F1 and Superman are entertaining movie lovers at the box office. However, fans are furious over the censorboard for suggesting few more cuts before allowing for the theatrical screening in the films.
Censor Board gave U/A certificate after removal of the sensual visual from the Superman.In addition to the kissing scene, the CBFC also muted several curse words throughout the film. Another scene featuring an eight-second foul gesture was trimmed and replaced with a two-second shot.
Fans expressed their anger over Censor Board decision.
One user remarked, "CBFC cuts a 33-second kiss in Superman, but item numbers with half-naked dancers and vulgar lyrics get a free pass? What’s the logic?"
Another user on X stated, "What's wrong with the Indian censor board? They cut out the kisses between Clarke and Lois. What kind of oversensitive morons are running the censor board? You think Indian audiences can't handle kissing? You think children today don't know what kissing is?"
One social media commenter wrote, "Why is a kiss between Superman and Lois Lane a problem, but Bollywood’s item numbers with provocative moves are okay for kids?"
A user wrote, "Like changing the middle finger emoji to a fistbump emoji in 'F1' movie, that totally changed the meaning and left the audience confused. CBFC, grow up (sic)."
Prior to it Censor Board changed middle finger emoji to fist emoji in F1. Similary, five abusive words - ‘a*’, ‘ahole’, ‘dks’, ‘b**h’ and ‘prick’- were muted from the Marvel film 'Thunderbolts'.
