Enraged Anurag Kashyap Storms Out Of Censor Board Office
Anurag Kashyap's Bombay Velvet is the hot topic at the Central Board of Film Certification's (CBFC) office.

The Ranbir Kapoor-Anushka Sharma starrer, which was censored by CBFC's officials today, has been labelled 'Adults Only'.


 
Moreover, the film has been given three cuts. Some of the words removed as per CBFC's directive include words like 'son of a bit**, hara****I and dhobi..
 
A source told SpotboyE.com, "The CBFC members told Kashyap in no uncertain terms that the film cannot be given a 'U' or 'U/A'."
 
So, what was their objection after the foul language was eliminated? Reveals the source, "The theme of the film is very heavy on crime."
 
An 'A' certificate is the last thing that Kashyap wanted on his extravagant film, which he wants people to see in large numbers in the theatres.
 
Last heard, Kashyap is planning to take it up with the Revising Committee.
 
Bombay Velvet is scheduled to hit the theatres on May 15.
