Govind Namdev AGAIN targets CBFC for giving ‘A’ certificate to OMG 2, compares India’s situation with ‘conservative’ countries UAE and Oman August 23, 2023 at 07:35PM

Govind Namdev was a lot in the news earlier this month when he slammed the CBFC (Central Board of Film Certification) on Facebook for giving an Adults certificate to OMG 2 and ordering over 20 cuts in the movie that promotes sex education in schools. Bollywood Hungama was the first one to report the same. The veteran actor has now targeted the CBFC again for the same and has also compared the situation in India with ‘conservative countries’ like UAE and Oman.

Govind Namdev shared a video on Facebook of an online portal discussing how OMG 2 has got an Adults certificate despite it being a film meant for teenagers. He captioned the post, “Even in conservative countries like UAE and Oman, students from 12th standard onwards are permitted by the Govt. to watch OMG (2) in order to let them guide in the direction of sex education. We too can learn from these countries. God bless …” For those not in the know, UAE and Oman have rated OMG 2 permissible for children above 12 to watch.

The earlier post of Govind Namdev, when he had strongly slammed CBFC over this matter, read, “Jo dimaag Censor Board ko Adipurush jaisi behuda film ko censor karne mein lagana chahiye tha who unhone OMG 2 jaisi thoughtful-progressive film ko kaatne-kootne mein kharch kar diya (The kind of mind the Censor Board should have applied to censor a ‘disgusting’ film like Adipurush, they applied it to cut and scrap a thoughtful and progressive film like OMG 2).”

Directed by Amit Rai, OMG 2 stars Pankaj Tripathi, Akshay Kumar and Yami Gautam along with Govind Namdev in the role of a priest.

Bombay High Court orders stays the release of Hamare Baarah, two days before the film’s release June 07, 2024 at 01:02PM

Hamare Baarah, which is making news for its bold approach and thought-provoking plotline, has been mired in controversy, with the makers landing in deep trouble. The highly anticipated release of Annu Kapoor, Manoj Joshi, and Paritosh Tripathi starrer, has encountered a significant setback as the Bombay High Court has issued a stay on its release just two days before its scheduled release on June 7, extending the hold until June 14. This unexpected turn of events has impacted the premiere of the film which was expected to be held this week, leaving makers in an uncertain dilemma. The legal obstacle arises from a petition filed by activists from a specific religious community at the Mumbai High Court, opposing the film's release. Producers Birender Bhagat and Ravi S Gupta have raised serious concerns regarding the imposition of the stay, especially given that the film had already obtained a censor certificate. In a recent statement given to NDTV, Mr Bhagat explained their predicame...
