Censor board 'cuts' that made headlines
Saif Ali Khan's Happy Ending, co-produced by Dinesh Vijan, was given a UA certificate only after three cuts, reports Mumbai Mirror. Certain expletives like `as*h*l*' and `f****rs' have been modified to 'ass' and 'fokers' and the word 'naked' has been deleted. However, a member of the cast is exultant that words like 'penis' and 'ch***ya' have not got the cut, the report states. “We let the word 'ch**iya' pass if it isn't uttered too often in a film. But, the word 'penis' should never be passed. The print that was screened for us was barely audible and a lot of what was being said on screen, was pure guesswork on our part," the report quotes a CBFC member (on condition of anonymity). When questioned on the word 'penis', Raj quipped to Mirror, “It was actually a reference to peanuts which Ranvir Shorey and Saif have while having a drink. But perhaps it doesn't sound like peanuts."
