Udta Punjab is the most awaited movie of this year starring Shahid Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, Dilijit and Kareena. But the movie is facing many problems, after series of controversies and censor board's demand of having 89 cuts has definitely left a lot of people furious. While makers of the movie are all set to drag censor board to the court, now Bombay High Court on Friday said that whether it is TV or cinema, let the people see it, since everybody has a choice. The court told the certification board that multiplex audience is mature. The court said," You are certification board not censor board. People don't need censor they are biggest censors."
Indian Journalist Shilpa Rathman live tweeted the response of the Bombay HC to the Censor board regarding the Udta Punjab Row and, owing to their absolutely savage responses her twitter timeline has now gone viral.

CBFC vs Udta Punjab: CBFC says "Till Tommy is a drug addict we understand he can cuss, why is he cussing after he reforms as well?" 😂😂— Shilpa Rathnam (@shilparathnam) June 10, 2016
CBFC: We were told film is in Hindi, but both Hindi and Punjabi are spoken. Judge: Are you saying you ordered cuts without understanding?— Shilpa Rathnam (@shilparathnam) June 10, 2016
Judge: Give the film a certificate, what is the need for cuts?— Shilpa Rathnam (@shilparathnam) June 10, 2016
CBFC: We were told film is in Hindi, but both Hindi and Punjabi are spoken. Judge: Are you saying you ordered cuts without understanding?— Shilpa Rathnam (@shilparathnam) June 10, 2016
Judge to CBFC: For action to be taken you need to provoke. Multiplex audiences are discerning. How can you decide which word's right/wrong?— Shilpa Rathnam (@shilparathnam) June 10, 2016
Judge: Film industry is not made of glass that you need to "handle with care." If you ask for so many cuts why is the point? Audience knows.— Shilpa Rathnam (@shilparathnam) June 10, 2016
The CBFC Totally Walked Into This One:
Judge: It comes down to only one question, does the film glorify drugs?— Shilpa Rathnam (@shilparathnam) June 10, 2016
CBFC: Yes
Judge: Then why have you not banned the film?
He Even Mothered Them By Reminding Them Of Their Past In-Competencies:Judge: CBFC should only certify, not censor. The public is the biggest censor. CBFC doesn't need to censor.— Shilpa Rathnam (@shilparathnam) June 10, 2016
Judge: Has CBFC discharged its functions from 1952 onwards with utmost care? We are fed up of all this.— Shilpa Rathnam (@shilparathnam) June 10, 2016
There's A Good Chance That Finally There'll Only Be One Cut In The Movie:
The one cut is of Tommy (Shahid Kapoor) urinating and the makers of Udta Punjab have agreed to remove the scene.— Shilpa Rathnam (@shilparathnam) June 10, 2016
In The End, Judge Summed It Up Very Well!
Now, the hearing has been adjourned for the day, and the order will be pronounced on June 13. Keeping our fingers crossed!!!Judge: We want creative people to survive and the industry to survive. You have to show the reality.— Shilpa Rathnam (@shilparathnam) June 10, 2016
