The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has denied clearance to two films based on the Patidar agitation in Gujarat. The reason, apparently, was that the characters and situations in the film are far too close to real life and could disrupt peace in society.
Producers of both films have now decided to fight it out in the court since, they said, huge sums of money were at stake.
Power of Patidar film’s producer Dipak Soni said here that the board had orally communicated to him three days ago that the movie could not be released since certain names and characters as also the situations in the film are too close to reality.
