Michael Jackson’s sudden death due to cardiac arrest has prompted film-makers of a Bollywood film Shortkut: The Con Is On to chop a portion of their film even though it was earlier passed by the Indian censor board without a single cut.

A particular scene from the movie had a person enacting the role of a choreographer blasting Arshad Warsi (above), who has two left feet, for his incompetent dancing skills by mouthing a line “Arrey Michael Jackson ki Aulad, why can’t you do one step correctly?”

When contacted, director Neeraj Vora confirmed, “It is a sensitive thing and it would have been very insensitive to show anything on him right now. Hence, we have decided to delete the line that was there to avoid any disrespect to the music legend.”
