Vidya Balan was at a launch and the only question on everyone’s mind was regarding the CBFC’s functioning over the first month since undergoing a major change. She refused to divulge any detail but she did reveal that the board members recently had a meeting and she is happy “that all like-minded people are on the board.”
Last month, much to the relief of filmmakers and the audience, the Censor Board of Film Certification underwent a revamp in August. Padma Shri recipient and lyricist Prasoon Joshi replaced Pahlaj Nihalani as the chairperson and revered film personalities like Vidya Balan and TS Nagabharana became board’s new members. Hopes are pinned on the new censor board to bring the much-needed sanity to the film certification process in the country, and as the chairperson and his members have kept mum about their plan of action, it has left the industry and the media speculating about what the new team will bring to the table.
