Siddharth vents against Censor Board

Hyderabad: In recent times, the credibility of the Regional Censor Board has often been questioned and objected by several actors, directors and producers. Actor Siddharth is the latest celebrity, who has vented against the Board's action of deleting a scene from his upcoming movie. He says that the entire industry should unite to fight against the Board until it set some sensible rules for filmmaking.

Angry Siddharth took to his Twitter page to express his disappointment over the decision of the Censor Board. He tweeted, "In a scene in my next film, my character mentions lawyers taking bribes and fake swamijis commiting fraud. The censor board has cut them out!" Sid added, "Unless film makers unite and refuse to screen films until a sensible set of rules is laid down for censorship, the silliness will not end!"

Siddharth continued, "As always, attacks on and curbing of creative expression are seen as problems of the individuals facing them. Not as a systemic problem. Sad." The actor added, "Comes a time in every industry when the till then young suddenly become the seniors. When our change of guard happens, we need to be ready!"

However, Siddharth spoke about the Board deleting a scene from his film, but he did not reveal the name of the movie. The actor is eagerly waiting for the release of Jabardasth, which is set to release on February 22. Directed by Nandini Reddy, the film features him in a comedy role and Samantha as his love interest.
