Balakrishna's Legend Bags A Certificate From Censor Board

Nandamuri Balakrishna's highly-anticipated movie Legend has cleared the censor test on Wednesday (March 26). The officials of Regional Censor Board, who watched the movie on Tuesday, have awarded an 'A' Certificate to the film, which is scheduled to hit the screens across the globe this Friday. Now, the makers have gone busy with the preparation for the grand release of this action entertainer.

Sources from the Censor Board say that Legend is a decent family entertainer with lot of emotions and drama. The sources add that the second half is more interesting than the first half. But it features many political dialogues. The officials from the Board suggested the producers either to get NOC (No Objection Certificate) from the Election Commission or delete those dialogues to get 'U/A' certificate.

But the producers of Legend were reluctant to delete those political dialogues as they were very crucial for the movie. The Board had put the process of certification on hold on Tuesday. After some negotiations with respect to cuts and a few beeps, the movie was awarded an 'A' certificate on Wednesday.

Legend has been directed by Boyapati Srinu and produced by Ram Achanta, Gopichand Achanta, Anil Sunkara and Sai Korrapati under the banners of 14 Reels Entertainment and Varahi Chalanachitram. Jagapathi Babu is playing villain role, while Radhika Apte, Sonal Chauhan appear as heroines. Devi Sri Prasad has composed the music for the film.
