Vikramaditya
Motwane's
forthcoming
Lootera,
that
features
actors
Ranveer
Singh
and
Sonakshi
Sinha
is
the
leads,
has
been
pruned
to
give
it
just
the
perfect
running
time.
"The
final
version
of
the
film
is
being
cut
short
by
20
minutes," says
a
source
close
to
the
film.
"The
first
cut
of
the
film
was
almost
2
hours
35
minutes.
The
director
was
in
a
quandary
about
what
to
retain
and
what
to
remove.
Every
scene
was
brilliant
and
he
was
unwilling
to
let
it
go."
"However,
in
the
interest
of
being
practical,
the
producers
convinced
him
to
make
it
pacy
and
engaging.
A
tight
running
time
also
ensures
more
shows
in
cinemas
thereby
increasing
footfalls
and
revenues,"
the
source
further
added.
The
film's
final
running
time
is
believed
to
be
approx.
135
minutes.
It
has
also
been
given
a
clear
U/A
certificate
with
no
cuts.
