“Deepika Padukone’s romantic inter-lewd with Hrithik, who by the way is known to be extremely prudish about on-screen intimacy, had the censor board fuming,” reveals a source
Siddharth Anand directed Fighter is one of the most awaited movies of the year and audiences are quite excited for the film, especially after watching its trailer. Hopes from the movie are quite high as Siddharth Anand’s last movie, Pathaan was also a super duper hit and many are eager to see the magic that will be created on the screen by the beautiful pair of Hrithik and Deepika.
However, the censor board disapproved of the intimate scenes between Hrithik and Deepika and only after the scenes were removed, the board gave U/A certificate to the movie.
A source stated, “Siddharth Anand seems to bring out the erotic edge in Deepika Padukone’s personality. I say this as I don’t see the director objectifying his other heroines in the same way. She did a highly sensuous song and dance with Shah Rukh Khan in Siddharth Anand’s Pathaan. Now in Fighter, her romantic inter-lewd with Hrithik, who by the way is known to be extremely prudish about on-screen intimacy, had the censor board fuming.”
The movie will be released on 25 January and it also stars Anil Kapoor, Karan Singh Grover, Sanjeeda Sheikh, etc. in important roles.
