'Udta Punjab' row: Kicking freedom to the curb In the long line of cuts we've endured, Udta Punjab is only the latest. Bollywood backs ‘Udta Punjab’ makers 01:22In the wake of the ongoing controversy over certification of Bollywood film 'Udta Punjab', based on the menace of drugs in Punjab, the Censor Board has cleared Punjabi filmmaker Baljeet Singh's upcoming film 'Dhee Punjab Di' with a 'U' certificate. The makers of 'Udta Punjab' have been at loggerheads with the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) after it reportedly suggested 89 cuts to the film. "I think it's a fabricated controversy going around the film and they (makers of 'Udta Punjab') are being misguided by some agency. Everybody is scared that Ekta Kapoor will ruin their career if they will speak against her," he added.
