After reportedly getting an A certificate from the Censor Board, Priyanka Chopra’s latest item song has been reviewed and handed over a U/A certification
The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) had reportedly given the song 'A' certificate after receiving complaint from Delhi-based women activists against "commodification" of female body in such performances, but they decided to change it to U/A following a review.
"On Monday, CBFC put 'Babli Badmaash' through the Revising Committee, which cleared the track with a 'U/A' certificate", said a statement issued by Balaji Motion Pictures today.
Balaji Motion Pictures CEO Tanuj Garg said in the statement, "After submitting 'Babli Badmaash' for certification, we were informed that it would get an 'A' because it was an item track. We informed the CBFC that the industry was not aware of such a rule and that this would warrant a larger discussion between both parties."
"It is a very interesting song, and Priyanka has done a wonderful job. This song will be used as a promotional number for the film and the song will be on air from March 15,"
