The recently released horror comedy Stree 2 has emerged as a blockbuster and has been loved for its humourous as well as horrifying scenes. A lot of references of Bollywood actors have been made in the film which added to the fun. However, moviegoers noticed that in a scene in the second half, Neha Kakkar’s mention was changed to Sneha Kakkar.
Bollywood Hungama spoke exclusively with Stree 2 ’s director Amar Kaushik on this change asked by the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). EXCLUSIVE: Stree 2 director Amar Kaushik opens up on why CBFC members replaced Neha Kakkar with Sneha Kakkar: “They pointed that aise jokes se bura lag sakta hai..
.” When asked if it was a downer when the Censor Board asked for this change, Amar replied, “Not really. The CBFC members pointed that aise jokes se bura lag sakta hai .
We thought they had a valid point and hence, didn’t request them to let us retain the dialogue. Anyway, logon toh samaj mein aa gaya .” He continued, “When you write comedy, you end up having such jokes.
Like when you are sitting with friends, you would pass such comments. That’s where the fun happens. The intention of writer Niren Bhatt and mine was that the way people get humour in their lives, we want to follow suit.
We don’t put gags. Humko ‘gag’ word se hi nafrat hai ! When someone says ‘ Ek gag daal dete hai’ , I am like ‘ Nahin chahiye mujhe gag’. Gag is akin to puking for me!” Amar Kaushik, however, also added, “The CBFC members that we met this time were intelligent and sensible.
They heard our point of view. We could have got many cuts. They told us, ‘Yes, yeh dialogue mein problem hai but if we cut it, it’ll affect the narrative and we know you added it for so-and-so reason.
Hence, we won’t censor it’. I was surprised. We were prepared that a lot of dialogues will get cut.
