Yes, I think censorship is a must nowadays. Today we have so many movies displaying nudity, hurling abuses, showcasing violence and sexual violence also. Censorship is vital to protect and safeguarding the young children who are watching these movie at homes if not in theaters. They are young and under impressionable age.

They may develop and carry wrong notions or maybe they may get scared and panic because of the impact that violent scenes may cast on them. It may affect their thinking and ultimately destroy or affect their mentality because their mind is a like a blank slate.

Whatever they see becomes a part of their lives. They learn from TV's and movies. Kids are our future plus scenes of nudity or sex scenes are no pleasure to watch with family. It actually turns embarrassing. So censorship is a must.

Hello friends, according to my point of view there is a need of censorship board on movies because now a days there are many scenes in the movies which are not good or we can say that that are affected badly on our youth or children. No doubt the Indian film industry gives us large number of good films. It give us motivational movies, comedy movies, family movies, action movies etc. But now we see that there are many movies which include some bad scenes which badly affected the childrens. Also there are some movies which anger the peoples against something as a result of which wrong consequences come out.

So I would like to say that the Indian movies is good mostly in all aspect such that it provide us good knowledge as well as motivate us but also there is a need of censorship board to stop releasing of movies which include bad scenes in the movies and which affect our youth and children.

I think the censor board is doing good job to cut those scene which is not required to current generation. If censor board rate a particular film with 'A' then it is duty for govt to regulate norms with strict action. As no cinema hall issue ticket to below 18 years old. And if found then heavy penalty or cancel their licence. And TV media not show A kind of movie, as it is considered that in our home all type of people. Or that vulgar scene cut on that movie.

Films are meant to be for entertainment so its duty for censor board as well as parents. Parents take their children for involving such bad activity.

Actually we have to change our state of mind regarding these issue and take our underage children. As if censor board cut some scene and stop particular film then what is guarantee that they would not see such type of scene, As internet, smartphone etc. Then we can not blame to censor board 100 percent, it our duty as we have to take our children.

Currently censor board is doing a very good job. But it still needs some amelioration. Filtering out the vulgar scenes is not enough.

According to my point of view, the item-songs are equally responsible for deteriorating our Indian culture. These cheap songs decrease the value and dignity of women.

This also has adverse effect on young school girls performing this cheap songs on stage. Seeing our top bollywood actresses performing these songs, they also want to follow them.

So from my point of view, along with the vulgar sex scenes, the item-songs must be banned from movies.

Censor should be done because when we watch a movie as a family we need to eradicate certain scenes.

It makes the film industry to make a better movie and there will be limit for the film makers regarding the vulgar scenes.

The film must have something other than the love and vulgar scenes to entertain the audience.

Hi guys,

I think movies shouldn't be censored because there are some people who enjoy watching such scenes. Some people who don't want to view sex, violence or use of a certain word should not watch at all.

Children should be banned from watching A rated movies, because it will make them feel disturbed and also they might get curious and search up words or porn sites or disturbing pictures on the internet as these days the younger generation is very good at handling electronic gadgets. 18 years and above should be allowed only as the younger people are not completely mature.

Hi friends,

I am Hamri. According to my point of view, Censorship in Movies Must be strictly follwed by censorship board. In 2013, Indian cinema celebearted it's 100th year. At this Moment we are proud to be an Indian. Since 100 years, Indian cinema Giving a good movies for Society. Watching Movies are the main Entertainment Zoner in India. At every Time they learn Some good habbits from Movies. Some of the movies are showing motivational thoughts to the society. I am sure that all the Movies are giving good thoughts to the society. 50% of the movies have to teach Bad thoughts, Showing vulgar scenes on the screen. It must be censored before it is getting into the theatre.

Censor board plays a pivotal role in the outcome of a cinema in a good way.In olden days there rarely used to be vulgar scenes in a cinema. But things have drastically changed now. More time has been allocated for the scenes which effect human sentiments and which effect our culture. More number of vulgar scenes have been put up by the directors so as to collect high revenues for the movie.



I think this is high time for taking strict steps in the censorship board to save our future generation going in a wrong way.

Hello friends, I think censorship is really required for movies.Because without censorship there is no control or restriction on movies.Any director can release any movie that would affect our culture.our country's culture is different than other country so our country's culture should not affect by bad movies so censorship is required for movies to decide culture of movies.
