During our last conversation with Kanu Behl, the director wasn’t worried about Agra—which explores the subject of sexual repression—having a hard time with the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) as his previous experience with the board was “reasonable” (To find a producer is the toughest bit, Aug 6). Unfortunately, the film has now had a run-in with the board. It has granted Behl’s movie an ‘A’ certificate, with two instructions—that a scene with frontal nudity be replaced with another visual, and a sex sequence be deleted altogether.
