Rangoon censored: Saif Ali Khan cant say the B word

18 Jan 2017

Bakchod and Bastard are two of the forbidden words that have been deleted from Vishal Bhardwajs Rangoon before being granted a UA certificate. Producer Sajid Nadiadwala and director Bhardwaj, coming together for the first time, can now breathe easy as theyve sailed through the censor board with just a few verbal cuts. Bastard has been replaced by Rascal, and Bakchod with Bakchor whatever that means. Interestingly the word bastard is allowed by the CBFC, if used in the literal sense. In Karan Malhotras Brothers Sidharth Malhotra was allowed to be called Bastard as he played Jackie Shroff s illegitimate son. However Kangna Ranaut cannot be called a chinal(which can be.errr crudely translated as slut) although it was okay for Vaani Kapoor to be called a slut in Befikre.In Rangoon the derogatory terms for a wanton woman has been asked to be replaced. Chinal is replaced by Jhoothi (liar).
