Multiple reports say the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has cleared the Tamil film ‘Jana Nayagan’ with an A certificate and has requested 12 specific edits. The requests include removing particular text and visual elements connected to political messaging, including a demand to remove references associated with TVK and to remove a falling Indian flag from the film. The CBFC’s list of edits is presented as requirements the filmmakers are expected to implement as part of the certification process. The reports frame the issue around what the censor board considers changes needed before the film can be released with the A rating. The exact nature of each of the 12 requested edits is described by the outlet(s) as a set of targeted alterations to specific scenes or content. Both accounts emphasize that the CBFC has already issued the A certificate while simultaneously asking for the specified changes, indicating the film can be released only after the edits are addressed to the board’s satisfaction.
