CBFC Snips Chhaava: Vicky Kaushal and Rashmika Mandanna’s Flick Gets a ‘Silence’ Order on Certain Words

Bollywood Newshound Nisha here, bringing you the latest from our beloved world of glitz and glam! 🎬✨ Grab your popcorn, because this tale of cinema, censorship, and chaos is one for the books!

The Waiting Game: Chhaava
Ah, the anticipation! The devoted fans of Vicky Kaushal are counting down the days until Chhaava hits the big screens on February 14th. Picture this: Vicky Kaushal paired with Rashmika Mandanna, a duo so dynamic that even the stars are aligning in their favor. Excitement is bubbling over, and the buzz is louder than a Friday night in Mumbai! But hold onto your popcorn, because the makers have hit a little snag, courtesy of our dear friends at the Censor Board. 🎬🔪

Snip, Snip, Oops!
The film’s team is working overtime to promote this cinematic gem. However, they’re also engaged in a delicate dance with the Censor Board, ensuring every guideline is met. Apparently, the scissors have been out again, snipping away at certain dialogues and scenes. According to reports, words have been muted (oh, the drama!) and some dialogues have undergone a transformation. For instance, the infamous ‘हरा***’ has vanished into thin air. Meanwhile, lines about the ‘Mughal Sultanate’ have been rephrased to something a tad more diplomatic. Imagine the creativity that goes into rewording history! 🎭✂️

A Little History Repeats Itself
But wait, there’s more! Even the trailer ruffled some feathers. Maharashtra’s very own Chief Minister, Devendra Fadnavis, chimed in with some unsolicited advice for the filmmakers — a gentle reminder to tread carefully with historical narratives. Remember that scene with Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj and Queen Yesubai dancing post-coronation? Yes, the one that sparked a bit of a kerfuffle. 🎩💃

According to the CBFC’s official website, Chhaava was certified on February 1, 2025, with a ‘UA 16+’ rating and a runtime just shy of a Bollywood epic at 161 minutes and 50 seconds. That’s 2 hours, 41 minutes, and 50 seconds of pure cinematic indulgence! 🎥⏰

Nisha’s Nutshell**
In the world of Bollywood, if it’s not controversial, is it even a movie? Remember folks, the moral of this tale is: When in doubt, just add a dance number — but maybe check with the Censor Board first! 😉
