The CBFC office was specially opened on Sunday to view and certify the directorial debut of Shailendra Singh
The CBFC (Central Board Of Film Certification) office was specially opened on Sunday to view and certify Sunshine Music Tours & Travels, the directorial debut of Shailendra Singh, head honcho of the entertainment, communications and media house Percept Pictures, because the film’s release would have been delayed otherwise.
Says a source from the CBFC, “There were an unusual number of films which needed to undergo the certification process this week, and Thursday was a holiday. So we decided to open our office on Sunday as an exceptional case.”
However the special treatment ended there. Sunshine Music Tours & Travel was granted an Adults Only certificate.
Shailendra is happy with the verdict, though. “I expected and in fact welcomed an ‘A’ certificate. The film has several dialogues and situations that are only suitable for adult viewing,” he said.
The debutant director had produced and distributed 74 Bollywood films before embarking on this project, which is a comedy-drama about two boys and their trip from Kashmir to Goa.
