Mumbai: There is much consternation and panic among filmmakers lined up for censor certification. The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) rule that films must apply for certification 68 days in advance has driven the industry into a state of panic.
The axe has fallen on the dubbed Hindi, Tamil and Telugu versions of the new Hollywood franchise “Justice League” which failed to procure censor certification on time.
A source from Warner Brothers revealed: “We somehow managed to get the original English version of ‘Justice League’ certified in time for release. But the Hindi, Tamil and Telugu versions fell prey to the 68-day rule. The dubbed versions could not be censored as the censor board has started following the 68-day timeline strictly from this week onwards.”
Apparently the Warner Brothers representatives requested for an exemption to the rule just this once as their advance booking for Justice League in Hindi Tamil and Telugu had already opened.
