Lipstick Under My Burkha Controversy! CBFC Says Content Is Unacceptable
CBFC defends its stance for not certifying Lipstick Under My Burkha & says that the film's content is unacceptable & society will not accept a film like this.
Prakash
Jha's
Lipstick
Under
My
Burkha
has
been
left
high
and
dry
by
the
CBFC
as
it
rejected
the
film
without
certifying
it
and
after
the
uproar
on
social
media
against
its
decision,
the
CBFC
came
out
in
defence
mode
by
saying
that
the
film's
content
is
unacceptable.
CBFC
member
Mamta
Kale
justified
the
Board's
action
by
saying,
"The
kind
of
content
and
the
abusive
language
they
have
put
in
the
movie
is
unacceptable
and
they
should
not
have
done
this.
Any
movie
that
comes
to
CBFC,
the
board
sees
it
really
critically.
The
whole
team
sits
together
and
analyses
the
movie
and
then
a
decision
is
taken."
She
also
said
that
the
film
has
nothing
to
do
with
women
empowerment,
"Being
a
woman,
you
can
talk
about
your
sexual
rights
but
you
have
to
keep
one
thing
in
mind
as
to
how
you
are
showing
that
issue.
Can
families
go
together
to
watch
such
a
movie?
No,
they
cannot."
Mamta
Kale
also
advised
film-makers
to
be
cautious
about
the
subject
they
are
trying
to
show
on
screen
and
must
not
put
their
hands
into
controversial
subjects
like
Lipstick
Under
My
Burkha.
She
also
believes
that
a
certain
section
of
the
society
will
never
accept
this
type
of
content.
