Choreographer-turned-director
Remo
D'Souza's
ABCD
2,
is
all
set
to
impress
the
audiences
on
June
19,
along
with
his
stars
Varun
Dhawan
and
Shraddha
Kapoor.
Recently,
the
ABCD
2
film's
director
Remo
D'Souza
has
been
approached
by
the
censor
board
with
regard
to
the
usage
of
a
derogatory
dialogue
in
the
film.
Reports
suggest
that
the
board
has
asked
the
director
to
remove
the
line
‘All
Indians
are
beggars'
as
it
could
offend
the
Indian
audiences.
The
line
‘All
Indians
are
beggars'
has
been
chopped
off
from
the
film.
Otherwise,
not
a
shot
has
been
removed.
"We
were
mesmerized
by
Varun
Dhawan,
Shraddha
Kapoor
and
Prabhudheva's
dancing.
The
film
is
clean
healthy
family
fare.
And
we
all
felt
there
was
no
reason
to
not
give
the
film
a
‘U'
certification.
However,
one
line
had
to
go.
It
referred
to
Indians
in
a
derogatory
manner.
Censor
guidelines
specify
that
no
utterances
insulting
any
nationality
or
community
must
be
allowed." says
a
source
from
the
censor
board.
Inspite
of
getting
'U'
certificate,
Remo
seemed
displeased
with
the
film's
release
date
as
it
has
not
been
pre-poned
by
a
day
to
June
18.
"I
was
in
Dubai
this
week.
They're
happy
that
our
film
opens
on
June
18
in
Dubai.
However
I
am
yet
to
convince
my
producers
to
release
the
film
on
June
18
instead
of
June
19
in
India.
My
Indian
Muslim
friends
are
not
too
happy
with
this
release
date
as
the
holy
month
of
Ramzan
starts
on
this
date." says
ABCD
director
Remo
D'Souza.
The
two
grooving
duo
of
ABCD
2
Varun
Dhawan
and
Shraddha
Kapoor
are
going
to
every
possible
place
to
promote
their
film.
Well,
we
just
can't
wait
to
watch
their
crackling
performances!
