Director Pravesh Bharadwaj is all praises for the Censor Board after his film Mr Singh Mrs Mehta, which grabbed headlines because of a clothless scene featuring actress Aruna Shields, was passed without cuts.
The film which revolves around the theme of infidelity, has three lovemaking scenes which too have been given the green signal by the Board.
Aruna Shields is a British actress of Indian origin took up the role of Neera Singh, which had been rejected by 60 other actresses in a row because the script contained a scene where the character poses nude for a portrait.
The film also boasts a record 34 kisses but the debutante director says that they were all central to the plot and not added for shock value.
The Board has often been criticised by filmmakers for it's high handed attitude and archaic values, but Bharadwaj says that he has no such complaints.
Bharadwaj is of the opinion that big budget films often have trouble with the board because they want a U certificate to maximise their audience and profit.
The film starring Shields opposite Prashant Narayanan will release on 25th June.
