Censor Board clears ‘Welcome Back’ with U/A certificate

Filmmaker Anees Bazmee’s upcoming film Welcome Back, has been passed by Censor Board Of Film Certification with a U/A certificate, but with a few cuts. The movie a romantic comedy stars John Abraham, Shruti Haasan, Anil Kapoor, Nana Patekar and Paresh Rawal in pivotal roles.

Anees Bazmee confirming the news said, “The cuts the censor board has asked for are all verbal…words like saala have been asked to be deleted, which we’ve happily done. However, some other cuts, we’re trying to explain to the censor board why the words are there. Every member of the censor board knows my films don’t have any double meanings and vulgar dialogues. So many cuts seem a little extreme.”

Welcome Back is slated to release on September 4.
