Censors give 6 cuts to Raman Raghav, furious Anurag Kashyap goes to the Tribunal

At the trailer launch of Raman Raghav 2.0, director Anurag Kashyap had stated that he would “not be satisfied with even a single cut” from the Censor Board and would “do anything it takes to avoid cuts.”

Now, the filmmaker is putting those words into practice.

Word coming in is that the Censor Board has demanded 6 cuts in the Nawazuddin Siddiqui-starrer. Anurag has been asked to chop off some scenes that have foul language and some particularly violent scenes.

We hear, Anurag was in no mood to give in to the demands. Now, the filmmaker has knocked on the doors of the Tribunal.

Anurag’s equation with the Censor Board has hardly been a smooth one. If there’s one director who has had a run-in with the CBFC with almost every film, it’s him.
