After ‘ADHM’ And ‘Raees’, Censor Board Victimizes John Abraham’s ‘Force 2’

After the infamous Uri attacks, the ban on Pakistani artistes in India became the much-talked about topic. We all know how the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) went against the release of ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’ and ‘Raees’ for starring actors from the neighbouring land. And now, the censor board is giving publicity to another upcoming film, ‘Force 2’.

Starring John Abraham and Sonakshi Sinha in the lead roles, ‘Force 2’ has been directed by Abhinay Deo and is slated for a worldwide release on November 18. The movie has been passed by the censor board with a UA certificate. However, CBFC pulled out it scissor for three important scenes with strong political overtone. Some sequences are said to have some of the content pertaining to cross-border terrorism and relations between India and Pakistan.

However, the makers are unlikely to make the cuts. A source was quoted as saying, “The producers Viacom 18 and Vipul A Shah have decided to appeal against the cuts to the Revision Committee of the CBFC, as they feel these cuts will affect the flow of the film”.

John Abraham also stated, “Unlike the first Force film we decided to incorporate a strong political message in Force 2 on cross-border issues. When we were shooting the film, the ghastly Uri tragedy had not happened. Now, some of the events described in the film almost seem to pre-empt the cross-border activities in the past few months”.

All we wish now is a smooth sail for ‘Force 2’ at the box office.
