CBFC to HC

# If Shahrukh Khan's name is used as name of dog it will be objection just like they have used Jackie Chain.

# A cut suggested scene shows drugs being thrown from Pak side to India, this may create trouble as it accuses pak.

# Taking a holistic view of the film after cuts it does not change the fabric of the film which shows drug menace.

HC  to CBFC

# This approach will not work generations to come will not be impressed.

# Don't be so critical we want creative people to survive and grow in this country.

HC to CBFC: 

# Films don't run on such content, their has to be a story in it, why are you concerned?

# Multiplex audience are mature enough.

# Whether it is TV or cinema, let the people see it. Everybody has a choice.

# Sometime to open eyes of people to all this menace, things have to be show directly.

# You are certification board not censor board. People don't need censor they are biggest censors.

Udta Punjab row: Delete 'Elections', 'MP', 'Parliament', cuss words - CBFC's bizarre list of cuts

CBFC lawyer to court: 

#  The words used in the songs are very offensive.

# The scenes in this movie which are cut are very vulgar.

# The dialogue "zameen banjar to aulaad kanjar" is also very abusive.

# The word "kanjar" is very offensive to use and the way it has been used is objectionable.

# "Kanjar" word used in the movie gives bad light to the state, Punjab is an "upjau" state.

# 'Kanjar' the word can be replaced.

# Don't have objections with the film, but the word "kanjar" and others used in the movies do not fit.
