Ayushmann Khurrana’s Article 15 passed with five cuts.

ENGLISH

Ayushmann Khurrana’s upcoming film Article 15 has been making headlines for quite some time now. Directed by Anubhav Sinha, the cop-investigative drama is inspired by true events and will feature Ayushmann as an IPS officer named Ayan Ranjan. Recently, the movie was entangled in a controversy, in which the makers of the film were accused of showing the Brahmin community in a negative light. Now, Article 15 has received its certificate from the CBFC and Anubhav who was apprehensive about the same is happy with certification.

The CBFC asked the makers for five negligible cuts in the film to which they agreed immediately. Article 15 has received a U/A certificate, and a happy Anubhav was quoted by Bollywood Hungama as saying, “The CBFC asked for just five very basic negligible cuts, to which we agreed in less than a minute. The cuts were for foul words  and they asked for a voiceover with a disclaimer, very  reasonable requests that I was happy to comply with.” The filmmaker further added, “Article 15 has been given a “U/A” certificate. And that too with nominal cuts. I am very happy.”

Along with Ayushmann, Article 15 will also star Manoj Pahwa, Sayani Gupta, Kumud Mishra, M. Nasser, Ashish Verma, Sushil Pandey, Subrajyoti Bharat, Ronjini Chakraborty and Zeeshan Ayub in pivotal roles. The film is slated for a June 28 release.

आयुष्मान  खुराना की अपकमिंग फिल्म आर्टिकल 5 काफी वक्त से सुर्खियों में है। फिल्म के डायरेक्टर हैं अनुभव सिन्हा। फिल्म सच्ची घटनाओं से इंस्पायर्ड बताई जा रही है और आयुष्मान इसमें आईपीएस अफसर का रोल निभा रहे हैं।

हाल ही में फिल्म कुछ कॉन्ट्रोवर्सीज में उलझ गई थी, जिसमें मेकर्स पर आरोप था कि वह ब्राह्मण लोगों की नकारात्मक छवि प्रस्तुत कर रहे हैं। अब आर्टिकल 15 को सेंट्रल बोर्ड ऑफ फिल्म सर्टिफिकेशन (CBFC) की तरफ से सर्टिफिकेट मिल चुका है और अनुभव इस सर्टिफिकेशन से खुश हैं।
