EXCLUSIVE: CBFC censors 96 seconds of kissing scenes in Lakshya-Ananya Panday starrer Chand Mera Dil
The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) passed Chand Mera Dil with a U/A 16+ certificate. However, the makers were asked to make two modifications. Firstly, the kissing visuals, lasting 10 seconds, were asked to be deleted and replaced with appropriate shots. Secondly, ‘lip lock kissing visuals’, lasting 1 minute and 26 seconds, were asked to be deleted. In other words, the CBFC has censored 96 seconds or 1 minute and 36 seconds of kissing shots in Chand Mera Dil. Lastly, the makers were asked to submit a consent letter for all the child artists used in the film.
Once the changes were made, the CBFC handed over the censor certificate on May 8. The length of the film, as mentioned on the censor certificate, is 135.36 minutes. In other words, Chand Mera Dil is 2 hours, 15 minutes and 36 seconds long.
The advance booking of Chand Mera Dil is expected to start from Monday, May 18. It is directed by Vivek Soni of Meenakshi Sundareshwar (2021) and Aap Jaisa Koi (2025) fame and produced by Hiroo Yash Johar, Karan Johar, Adar Poonawalla, Apoorva Mehta, Somen Mishra and Marijke deSouza.
