Yogi Adityanath Biopic ‘Ajey’ Overcomes Censorship Hurdles
The journey of ‘Ajey’, a biopic chronicling the life of Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, has been anything but smooth. Director Ravindra Gautam’s film faced significant resistance from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC).
CBFC Demands 29 Cuts and CM’s NOC
The CBFC initially demanded a staggering 29 cuts to the film, raising concerns about its content. Furthermore, they requested a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from Yogi Adityanath himself, adding another layer of complexity to the film’s release.
High Court Intervention Paves Way for Release
Facing these seemingly insurmountable obstacles, the filmmakers turned to the Bombay High Court. The court ultimately ruled in favor of the film’s release, clearing the path for ‘Ajey’ to reach audiences. The details of the court’s decision are yet to be fully disclosed, but this marks a significant victory for the filmmakers after a protracted struggle.
