Mrunal Thakur’s ‘Do Deewane Seher Mein’ Dialogue Changed Twice by CBFC Over Obscenity Concerns

The romantic drama Do Deewane Seher Mein, directed by Ravi Udyawar, premiered today to a favorable reception from both audiences and critics. The film, which was released on February 20, completed its censor certification process just two days prior on February 18.

Censor Board’s Cut List and Certificate

The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) granted the movie a U/A 13+ rating, highlighting that certain audio and subtitle elements were muted or removed for obscenity. Among the specific content censored was the word “b***s,” which appeared twice in the film, both uttered by Mrunal Thakur’s character, Roshni.

In the film’s first half, after Shashank, played by Siddhant Chaturvedi, makes a statement regarding possessions, Roshni humorously retorts with the censored term. Later in the second half, during a pivotal scene that critiques societal beauty standards, Roshni refers to the same word again. Additionally, there is a moment early in the movie where Roshni expresses dissatisfaction with a man she met by using a swear word, although the specific terminology is not clear due to the framing of the shot.

Final Certification Details

Following these modifications, the film received its censor certificate, which detailed a runtime of 137.41 minutes, or 2 hours, 17 minutes, and 41 seconds. The certification process indicates that adjustments were essential for the film to be deemed appropriate for a broader audience.

Industry Insights on Film Classification

An industry source commented that, given the alterations made, the film could have arguably been approved with a U rating. They noted the absence of explicit sexual content, a brief and mild kiss, and a comedic action sequence devoid of violence, suggesting that Do Deewane Seher Mein is a family-friendly film that might rightly have achieved a U/A 7+ designation or possibly even a U rating.
