Freaky Ali gets no cuts from Censor Board, chaddhi scenes remain

While the lingerie shot from debutant Nitya Mehras Baar Baar Dekho which releases this Friday has been removed, scenes showing Nawazuddin Siddiqui selling male lingerie in Freaky Ali which also opens this Friday, have been left uncut by the censor board.

The CBFC (Censor Board Of Film Certification) earlier removed a shot of a bra from Baar Baar Dekho which releases on the same day as Freaky Ali.

A source close to the development wonders what signals the CBFC wants to send out by their selective disapproval of innerwear scenes. "Are they saying its okay to have mens lingerie but not womens? If that is the case then why has a bra shot been allowed in the new Jackie Chan starrer Skiptrace? Are we to believe that female lingerie can be shown in non-Indian films and not in Indian films? Baffling, to say the least," says the source.

Be as it might the CBFC has had its say. Freaky Ali has been certified with a UA (accessible to children accompanied by adults) with no cuts.
