Twitter is mocking at the Central Board of Film Certification once again, this time for the certification for Sanjay Leela Bhansali's film 'Padmavati. 

CBFC has given clearance to the film and suggested 26 cuts in the film, 2 disclaimers and asked the makers to change the film’s title to 'Padmavat' and then it will be given a UA certificate. The decision came after an examining committee meeting by CBFC was held on December 28. 

This definitely hasn't gone down well with Twitterati, as they are quite amused with CBFC's route to escape any controversy this time around. While some are not able to deal with the change in the title of the movie,some are mocking at how our country functions.  

Take a look:

Former Censor Board chief Pahlaj Nihalani said, "The film faced so many controversies even before people saw it. This decision could have been taken before the film was opposed by the people and the political parties in several states This film was sidelined by the CBFC and it raises the question on the Censor Board. Producers suffered such huge losses because of the cuts. Vote bank politics has obviously been done, the film is being seen after elections. Chairman Prasoon Joshi faced pressure from the ministry."

While former Film and Television Institute of India (FTII) chief Gajendra Chauhan has expressed delight that the controversy is about to get resolved.
"I would like to congratulate the censor board and Bhansali who amicably tried to solve the matter. And I think the issue should now finally end" Meanwhile, filmmaker Ashoke Pandit said that it will be a great day for the entire film industry and film lovers when the film will be on the screens. "I congratulate and compliment Sanjay Leela Bhansali that finally after so much of uproar, the film will see the light of the day."
