Madhur
Bhandarkar
is
known
for
making
hard-hitting
and
realistic
cinema;
hence
facing
controversies
around
his
film's
release
is
something
which
is
not
new
to
this
talented
filmmaker.
His
latest
film
Fashion
starring
Priyanka
Chopra,
Kangana
Ranaut
and
Mugdha
Godse
in
lead
roles
opened
across
cinema
halls
on
October
29
and
this
time
too,
Madhur
had
to
deal
with
a
fair
share
of
controversies.
Firstly,
there
were
rumours
that
Kangana's
character
in
the
film
has
been
inspired
by
noted
Delhi
based
model
Geetanjali
Nagpal.
Then
the
censor
board
irked
Madhur
by
giving
him
an
'A'
certificate
as
they
felt
the
film
had
certain
objectionable
scenes
for
kids.
However,
the
director
could
have
got
himself
into
more
trouble
had
he
included
a
gay
kissing
scene
in
the
film.
The
scene
had
actors
Samir
Soni
and
Anil
Kumar
share
a
kiss
in
a
car
but
Madhur
decided
to
drop
the
scene
at
the
last
minute
as
he
didn't
want
any
further
complications.
However,
for
all
of
you
who
indeed
want
to
have
a
dekko
of
the
same,
the
director
is
planning
to
include
it
in
the
DVD
of
the
film.
Must
say,
Madhur
has
already
started
promoting
the
DVD
of
Fashion
in
a
smart
way.
