First, she, unlike almost every other actress from the film fraternity has taken a firm and vociferous stand against the indiscriminate and illogical censoring of Udta Punjab by the Central Board of Film Certification. That the usually silent film fraternity, which keeps mum whenever controversy knocks at its door, has suddenly started speaking up -- and in unison. And I think this is the best fallout of the Udta Punjab imbroglio. The courts will eventually rule on Udta Punjab (the Bombay High Court was hearing the case on Friday) and it is likely that the movie will be released on 17 June. All spoke up against the CBFC acting not as a film certification board, but as Edward Scissorhands and moral guardian for the adult citizens of India.
