‘Cultural chokehold': Mollywood fumes over censorship

KOCHI: A name as old as ancient mythology has ignited a modern-day firestorm in Kerala's film industry. Janaki vs State of Kerala (JSK), a yet-to-be-released courtroom drama, has triggered furious anger among filmmakers, artists and producers, all rallying against what they call the 'arbitrary and choking' decisions of the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). On Monday, the who's who of Mollywood — including FEFKA, KFPA and AMMA members — gathered outside the CBFC office in Thiruvananthapuram, venting frustration over a censorship regime they claim is becoming unpredictable, unreasonable and ruinous for creativity. 'This isn't just about Janaki, this is about artistic survival,' thundered Renji Panicker, head of FEFKA's Directors' Union. 'What next? Will filmmakers have to name their characters One, Two, and Three because religious names are off-limits? This is a cultural chokehold.' The immediate trigger? The CBFC's objection to protagonists called Janaki, a revered name for Ramayana's Sita, in two films, JSK and Token Number. While mythological names in films are nothing new (think Seeta Aur Geeta or Ram Lakhan), filmmakers are now being asked to rewrite, re-dub, and essentially re-construct their films post-production to appease the board's new sensibilities. The Kerala High Court itself was baffled. 'If Ram Lakhan and Seeta Aur Geeta didn't raise eyebrows, why Janaki?' the court asked while hearing a petition filed by JSK's producer Cosmos Entertainment. But the damage is done. Director M B Padmakumar was forced to rename his Token Number heroine to avoid a stand-off with censors. 'The issue was not just her name, it was her relationship with another character, Abraham,' he said. 'We had to fight, but eventually we gave in. And we're not alone.' Even L2: Empuraan, starring industry giants Mohanlal and Prithviraj, wasn't spared. After a storm of right-wing outrage post-release, the film was voluntarily re-edited and re-certified, delaying its rollout and denting its momentum. 'It's now a guessing game,' lamented KFPA vice president G Suresh Kumar. 'You finish shooting, editing, spend crores, and then you're told to change character names to get a certificate? That's not just censorship. That's sabotage.'

Arjun Kapoor's Sister Anshula Refuses To Participate On Salman Khan's Bigg Boss: 'Not A Game Show'

Last Updated: Anshula Kapoor says she's not ready for Bigg Boss after The Traitors, calling it too long and not her kind of game show. After impressing audiences with her stint on The Traitors, Arjun Kapoor's sister Anshula Kapoor has made it clear that she has no plans to participate in Salman Khan-hosted reality show Bigg Boss. In a recent interview with Zoom, Anshula explained why the popular TV format doesn't appeal to her and why she isn't ready to take it up anytime soon. Anshula said, 'Traitors is not Bigg Boss. At least if you look at the original concept of what Traitors is supposed to be, it's not Bigg Boss. It's a psychological show. More importantly, the time frame in which the shows are shot is very different. Traitors is a two-week game, and Bigg Boss is much longer and larger." She added that the nature of Bigg Boss doesn't resonate with her, especially at this point in her life. 'I don't watch Bigg Boss, so I don't really know what the current Bigg Boss looks like. But I know I am not cut out for it just yet, right now. I don't think I will be able to enjoy myself in that environment. I do not believe Bigg Boss is a game show," she said. Anshula recently made her reality show debut on The Traitors, which is currently streaming on Prime Video India. Hosted by Karan Johar and produced in collaboration with BBC Studios India and All3Media International, the show is based on the international format and combines strategy, betrayal, and suspense. The first nine episodes are available now, with new twists and episodes dropping every Thursday at 8 PM. The star-studded cast of The Traitors also features Maheep Kapoor, Karan Kundrra, Raj Kundra, Jasmine Bhasin, Elnaaz Nourouzi, Ashish Vidyarthi, Harsh Gujral, Jannat Zubair, Sudhanshu Pandey, Lakshmi Manchu, Mukesh Chhabra, and rapper Raftaar, among others. While Bigg Boss continues to be a major draw for Indian reality TV audiences, Anshula Kapoor's stance is clear that she prefers shorter, more strategic formats and isn't currently inclined toward high-drama, long-haul shows.

Subhash Ghai Announces Film With 'Heroine' Riteish; Shares Pic Of Actor Dressed As Woman

Last Updated: Subhash Ghai announced his comeback film with Riteish Deshmukh, sharing a playful photo of the actor dressed as a woman. Filmmaker Subhash Ghai, known for blockbusters such as Karz, Hero, Taal, Ram Lakhan, has announced his comeback film. Starring Riteish Deshmukh in the lead, not much details were unveiled about his upcoming project. However, Subhash chose a photo of Riteish dressed as a woman while making the announcement. It remains unclear whether the film is based on a similar theme or the photo was used for a generic purpose. On Monday, June 30, Subhash Ghai announced the lead star of next film. In a playful manner, he mentioned that he has finalised the 'heroine" for his next film. In the caption, he wrote, 'She is our next heroine in our upcoming film under Mukta Arts. A classic beauty. Can you guess the name of this beautiful girl? Please do write." For the unversed, the picture of Riteish seems to be from the 2006 comedy film Apna Sapna Money Money, where the actor played a conman and cross-dressed as part of his role. Here is the post: In the comment box, celebs and fans, alike, expressed their enthusiasm for Riteish's film witn Subhash. Mahima Chaudhry, who made her Bollywood debut with Ghai's Pardes, took a subtle reference at their film and commented, 'That's Desh mukh What about pardes mukh?" Another wrote, 'Deshmukh in heroin roll, dekhana shandar hoga". Another fan recognised Riteish's photo from Apna Sapna Money Money. The user wrote, 'Apna spna money money movie secene it was retiesh sir's superhit and one of the best comedy secene it was." Why has Subhash Ghai stopped making a lot of films anymore? The filmmaker's last directorial was 36 Farmhouse, which released in 2022. Speaking to Komal Nahta on his chat show Game Changers, Ghai recently addressed the most-asked-question – Why isn't he making films anymore? His response, rooted in disappointment, explained how the industry had evolved. 'It's just one thing, I don't see love among people, I don't see love in the team. I see everyone just working, poor things," the filmmaker said. He pointed out the increasing commercialisation of the industry, where creativity appears to take a backseat and only deadlines matter. Ghai also recounted a specific incident where he was working with a writer on a project and was left disappointed. He said, 'I called a writer, told him a story, and asked him to write it. He says, 'Yes, I'll write it in 15 days, give the second draft in 3 days, then this and that.' He gave me all the dates and installments, 'Your story will be ready in the many days.'" Ghai playfully added, 'I said, 'Are you making rotis or what?' because he gave me the whole thing with dates and installments." First Published:
