Rajkummer
Rao
starrer
Omerta
has
shocked
the
audiences
with
its
bloody
storyline
which
based
on
the
life
of
terrorist
Ahmed
Omar
Saeed
Sheikh
and
the
CBFC
has
ordered
2
cuts
and
they're
way
too
horrific
to
be
viewed
on
the
silver
screen.
The
first
cut
is
where
Rajkummar
Rao's
character
urinates
when
the
national
anthem
is
being
played
and
the
other
where
he's
seen
having
a
sexual
encounter
in
the
most
violent
way
possible.
The
director
of
Omerta,
Hansal
Mehta
opened
up
by
saying
to
DNA,
"It
is
an
offensive
scene
and
it
is
suppose
to
make
you
angry.
There
is
one
scene
where
he
is
having
a
violent
sex
before
he
carries
out
an
operation.
For
us
it
was
about
doing
this
film
without
making
him
look
like
hero.
It
is
about
a
film
on
an
antagonist
and
let
him
be
an
antagonist.
Let
somebody
loathe
or
hate
him."
Hansal
Mehta
Further
Commented,
"There
are
some
standard
emotions
that
a
film
leaves
you
with
like
happiness,
sadness,
this
(film)
would
leave
you
angry.
We
live
in
a
world
where
a
villain
like
this
exists
and
yet
we
are
silent
about
it."
There
Is
Silence
When
It
Comes
To
Terrorism,
Says
Hansal
Mehta
"There
is
deadly
silence
about
the
truth
surrounding
state
sponsored
terrorism.
It
exists
yet
we
do
not
talk
about
it.
Governments
don't
talk
about
it
because
the
business
of
war
keeps
the
government
solvent."
Govt
&
Politicians
Make
Money
Through
War
&
Oil
"Today
everyone
is
busy
in
their
own
lives
and
do
not
care
about
things
happening
in
the
world
until
something
affects
them
directly.
I
am
hoping
the
film
will
tell
people
to
think
we
need
to
react.
It
is
in
government's
interest
to
maintain
status
quo
they
are
in
the
business
of
war,
fighting
because
governments
and
politicians
make
their
money
from
oil
and
defence,"
said
Hansal
Mehta.
The
Cuts
Are
Unfair,
Says
Hansal
Mehta
"The
revising
committee
suggested
two
cuts
and
I
could
have
taken
to
tribunal
but
it
is
unfair
to
producers
who
have
invested
money
in
the
film
as
the
tribunal
would
take
time.
There
were
two
cuts
and
we
did
it."
