SCOOP: 8 Minutes cut from Ajay Devgn s Shivaay

This Diwali s purported blockbuster Shivaay has just undergone a surgical operation. The film s playing time of nearly 3 hours has been reduced by 8 minutes.

Says a source in the know about the development, It was unanimously felt by film s team that one of the reasons for its slow performance at the box office was the inordinate length. At 2 hours 53 minutes Shivaay clocked at almost an hour longer than the normal duration in today s cinema. A day after the film s release, 8 minutes of the film was snipped off.

Sources say a few minutes of the film had also been edited a day before the film s release.
