Sudhir Mishra wonders why love scenes are unsafe for kids

For kids "violence is okay, but love is not" is a condescending double standard that plagues most Indian censors, says director Sudhir Mishra. Speaking during an interactive session at the ongoing 43rd International Film Festival of India (IFFI), Mishra said the outlook of Indian censors needed to be re-looked at, especially when it comes to issuing censor certificates.
"Kids are allowed to watch violence but not intimate scenes because such scenes are 'adult' in nature. How does any of this make sense," Mishra asked.
The director, who has crafted several critically acclaimed films like 'Hazaaron Khwaishein Aisi', 'Dharavi', 'Chameli', etc., also said that several of his films had intimate scenes over which he had to wrangle with the censor board for clearance.

Mishra said that several of his films had intimate scenes over which he had to wrangle with the censor board.

"My film ('Hazaaron Khwaishein Aisi') was called an adult film by the censors. I believe, even school children should be made to see critically acclaimed films like these, because there is so much to learn about an age," he said

Youth ready to see people as me on TV: Sunny Leone

She has no regrets for what she does, and knows her work as a porn star goes against Indian culture. But Sunny Leone says its because the country's younger generation is willing to accept all kinds of people that she has been able to make inroads into the Hindi film industry.
"I did not think that people will like me because of my background, like what I do for my living in the US. I was not sure if it would be accepted here," Sunny, who has made her Bollywood debut with erotic thriller 'Jism 2', told IANS.
What set the ball rolling for the 31-year-old, Indo-Canadian adult star here was her participation in reality show 'Bigg Boss 5'. She received the offer for 'Jism 2' via acclaimed filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt, and the spotlight has been on her ever since.

What set the ball rolling for the Indo-Canadian adult star was her participation in reality show 'Bigg Boss 5'.

Sunny, who was named among top 12 porn stars of the world by Maxim magazine in 2010, says the prejudices for people in her profession seem to be diminishing in the minds of the youth.
"I think the young generation of people are ready to see someone like me on TV. Otherwise I would not be here. I think one should live life the way they want regardless of what people think about you," she added.
'Jism 2', which released Friday, has proved to be beyond just a bold attempt to show skin and sex. Sunny, who is paired with Arunoday Singh and Randeep Hooda in the movie, says she had fallen in love with its script.
"It's been almost 12 years or so... I have done everything under the sun, did everything that is wrong as per Indian culture. (For 'Jism 2'), I fell in love with the story. I loved reading it again and again, and this film will always be special for me," she added.
Sunny is now expected to start shooting for Ekta Kapoor's 'Ragini MMS 2' towards the end of 2012.

Sunny Leone to do an item song in 'Singh Sahib'

Contrary to reports that Sunny Leone may not do an item number in 'Singh Sahib The Great', filmmaker Anil Sharma says he is keen to shoot the song with her and that they are working on her dates.

"Sunny Leone is a wonderful human being. She is a very good friend. We are trying to work on her dates. She is busy with her other projects. There are some date issues and nothing more than that. I want to work with her and we are trying to incorporate an item number with her," Anil Sharma told IANS.

There were rumours that the film's main lead Sunny Deol has refused to work with the Indo-Canadian porn star as he wasn't too pleased when the jokes about him and the actress started doing the rounds.

Sharma clarified it saying: "All these are just rumours. Sunny Deol is one actor in Bollywood who is least interested in getting into controversies. He only wants each and every actor to grow. He was very upset after he got to know about the rumours."

Shooting for 'Singh Sahib The Great' will start Dec 10 and Sharma said that it would be a 50 days schedule till January-end.

Sunny Leone in a workshop for Ragini MMS 2

Ragini MMS may have been one of those small unassuming ventures by Ekta Kapoor when she released it last year. However the surprise success of the film has made her all the more ambitious about nurturing it further as a franchise. Though roping in of Sunny Leone has already made the film big enough on paper, now she also wants the adult star's 'performance' to do the talking.

"Ragini MMS as a brand has two core constituents for it - sex and horror. For the former, there is Sunny on board and for the latter there is Bhushan Patel as a director who recently made a successful debut with 1920 - Evil Returns which is a hit. While this combination coupled with Ekta's marketing prowess would have been good enough to make the film hot much before its release, she wants more. She has allocated good budget for the pre-production as well", says a source connected to the film.

As of now as a bare minimum there is a 15 day workshop being planned with Sunny. Also, indications are that there would be some pre-release publicity created around the film's launch as well.

"Though no one can challenge Sunny's sex appeal, from the performance perspective too she had managed to hit decent notes with Jism 2. That was a pleasant surprise in itself. However Ekta as well as Bhushan feel that Ragini MMS 2 would require Sunny to go many notches here. They want the film to be more than just a sex driven affair", the source continues.

Thankfully for the makers, Sunny has agreed to an early visit as well. While the film's shooting would begin in Mumbai around January 15 next year, Sunny would be in town at least 10 days in advance for the workshop. That would involve participation from Sunny as well as her co-actor, the auditions for whom are currently on.

When contacted, Bhushan confirmed the details.

However given the core genre of the film, one wonders whether Sunny would indeed need a 'workshop' to get her on-camera 'act' right!

Talaash gets U/A certified, run time 2.14 hours

Aamir Khan's fans can rejoice. They can watch the actor's latest film Talaash with their families in theatres, now that it has been cleared by the Censor Board with a U/A certificate.

"Since it is a suspense drama with serial killings at the core of it, some feared that Talaash may be deemed unfit for kids and teenagers and hence would be given an 'A' certificate. However, Censor Board feels that there isn't anything overtly violent or disturbing about the film and hence have given it a U/A", a source informs.

This has been heartening for the film's producers Farhan Akhtar, Aamir Khan and Ritesh Sidhwani who wouldn't have to worry about curtailed footfalls for the film. Moreover, director Reema Kagti too is happy with the liberal stance that Censors have taken.

"The film had also been passed without any cuts. That's a good win too", the source adds.

The film's running length is 2 hours 14 minutes.

Salman-Arbaaz don't endorse adult content for Dabangg 2

He has been delivering a series of blockbusters, especially in last couple of years, and one thing that Salman Khan is being conscious about is ensuring that each of his films caters to family audience. Though Dabangg did have a hint of some tongue in cheek humour (remember 'Hum Tum Mein Itne Chhed Karenge.....'?), by and large he has stayed away bringing anything in his films that reeks of adult content.

"Same is the case in Dabangg 2 as well", says a prominent crew member, "Yes, there is some naughty humour that goes with Chulbul Pandey. However even that would be subtle and there won't be anything vulgar about it. Thodi masti rahegi, thoda funny rahega but there won't be any place for toilet humour."

In fact Salman as well as Arbaaz Khan was conscious about this fact due to which there was a slight alteration done in the theatrical promo compared to the one (with Salman getting into his naughty self) which went online.

"As a character Chulbul Pandey is intrinsically naughty and since the film is set in the UP-Bihar belt again, the core of the stage and setting has to remain intact. However that doesn't mean that the Khan brothers are compromising on the 'clean' tag with which they wish to release Dabangg", the crew member continues, "Neither is there any bad language nor any hint of skin show. Even the item song 'Fevicol' doesn't have any vulgarity to it. You can't expect that either with Kareena Kapoor in there."

With the most intimate moment between Salman Khan and Sonakshi Sinha also being restricted to a mere peck on the cheek, and that too rather symbolically, guess Dabangg 2 could well end 2012 on a 'clean' note.
