Gadar 2: After Akshay Kumar’s OMG 2, Sunny Deol Starrer Too Asked For 10 Cuts & Modifications By Censor Board! Rioters Chanting “Har Har Mahadev” Removed [Reports]

In recent times, we have seen the Central Board of Film Certification becoming too strict about what to be shown in the film. Recently, the censor board suffered a major backlash over passing the controversial dialogues in Prabhas-led Adipurush. As a result, the board was very strict with Akshay Kumar’s OMG 2 and granted it an ‘Adults Only’ rating. Even Sunny Deol’s Gadar 2 was asked for modifications and cuts.

The CBFC has been a topic of discussion over its dramatic decisions. It recently surprised everyone by granting an ‘A’ rating to a film like OMG 2 (Oh My God 2), along with several cuts. The reason behind the same is said to be the subject that also touches the taboo of mast*rbation. As Akshay depicts Lord Shiva in a human form, there was a chance of religious and political outrage over mixing such taboos in a film that also has a religious angle.

As per Box Office Worldwide’s report, Gadar 2 has been passed by CBFC with a ‘U/A’ rating and has a run time of 170 minutes (2 hours 50 minutes). It is also learnt that the makers were asked for several modifications and 10 cuts. There was a scene in which rioters were shown chanting “Har Har Mahadev”. It has now been removed. Even Shiv Tandav shlokas were replaced by using a different line.
