A couple of days before the official release of Salman Khan's upcoming movie 'Bharat', the makers have given 24 cuts to the final version. A media report said that the film has been given a cut to make it crispier and tighter.

The matter was first heard in the Bombay High Court then the makers approached the Supreme Court, but finally the decision on its release was left in hands with the Election Commission and Censor Board of India.

The Bombay High Court on Monday asked CBFC and Election Commission to decide if biopic on Prime Minister Narendra Modi can be released ahead of Lok Sabha Election 2019. The makers had announced April 5 as a release date for the movie.

Despite a series of modifications being made in the controversial film "Padmavati" including its renaming as "Padmavat", the Karni Sena on Friday again raised a demand for a complete ban on film.

The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has decided to give a U/A certificate subject to no cuts, but five "modifications" -- including a title change -- to Sanjay Leela Bhansali's controversial film "Padmavati". The decision has not been welcomed by the Karni Sena, a Mewar royal and some members of the film fraternity.

Dismissing plea to stop release of 'Padmavati' movie outside India, Supreme Court bench led by Justice Dipak Misra said it is upto Censor Board to decide.

Sanal Kumar Sasidharan's fight to have his Malayalam film "S Durga" screened at the 48th International Film Festival of India (IFFI) failed due to fresh title-related issues raised by the Central Board for Film Certification (CBFC).

Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje on Monday said that 'Padmavati' will not be released in Rajasthan till necessary changes as per the suggestions given to the Centre were incorporated in the Sanjay Leela Bhansali movie.

Amidst growing protest over Sanjay Leela Bhansali's upcoming movie "Padmavati", Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje on Saturday wrote to the Centre seeking "necessary changes" in the movie before its release, so that "sentiments of any community are not hurt".

He said the accusations were surprising. "The CFBC is a responsible body and has the best interests of the Industry and Society. Let not convenient, casual methods be brought in to the practise," the statement said.
