Many reports were doing the rounds that the Central Board of Film Certification (
CBFC) might ask the makers of '
Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan' to edit the lip-lock scene which
Ayushmann Khurrana and
Jitendra Kumar share in the film, however, as per the latest update censor board has given a clean chit to the scene. They have no objection with the same-sex kiss shown in the trailer.
A while ago
Neena Gupta took to her Instagram handle to share the news, "CBFC ne jeetaya pyaar! Dekhiye
#ShubhMangalZyadaSaavdhan seh-parivaar, releasing this friday!
@smzsofficial@cypplofficial@tseries.official", she wrote.
Recently in an interview when we asked
Ayushmann was asked if he was concerned that the CBFC will edit out the particular scene, he said that it depends on the treatment. Their first aim was to make a film which is a wholesome entertainer and which one should watch with a family. It’s the texture of the film which isn’t vulgar. It’s clean and that’s why Censor board has passed it.
Meanwhile, 'Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan' is a sequel to the 2017 film '
Shubh Mangal Saavdhan'. The film which features Ayushmann as a gay man is touted to be the first mainstream gay love story in Bollywood. It also stars Neena Gupta,
Pankhuri Awasthy, Maanvi Gagroo and
Gajraj Rao in key roles.
