With the much-anticipated release of “Dream Girl 2” on August 25, the film has garnered excitement among audiences despite facing competition from other releases. The comic caper, starring Ayushmann Khurrana, has been in the spotlight recently for its journey through the process of censorship. The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) awarded a U/A certificate to the film on August 16, after requesting several modifications. The controversial word ‘b*****d’ was muted in two instances, and a dialogue concerning circumcision was removed along with its corresponding visuals.
Additionally, alterations were made to the dialogue ‘Behen kyun de di’, and an anti-smoking ad was included at the beginning of the second half, along with an anti-smoking ticker during smoking scenes. Intriguingly, on August 21, the makers approached the CBFC once again and voluntarily removed 12 scenes while adding 16 new sequences to the film. This substantial editing process led to a final run time of 130 minutes, signifying 2 hours and 10 minutes. “Dream Girl 2,” directed by Raaj Shaandilyaa, features a star-studded cast including Ayushmann Khurrana, Ananya Panday, Paresh Rawal, and Annu Kapoor, and is poised to deliver an engaging cinematic experience.
