Censorship in Movies & Our Culture

Keeping aside the action and drama, the vulgarity depicted knows no bounds. India has always been known for its culture. However it's rare to find movies based on any culture. Thanks to the media and the hype created of the celebrities personal lives, youngsters get influenced in the wrong way.

I don't want that our sensor board should restrict to only cutting vulgar scenes, but it should be something more beyond that.



Because we, all most all, like to watch movies. It is true that it really affects on our thoughts and behavior.



Our culture has given ethics and basics to be followed to become a good person and if a movie is providing something against those ethics then that should get banned. Because it's something by which you can pass on the message or affect large amounts of lives.

I think the creativity of the film director should be considered before censoring the film. It should be certified accordingly to allow the viewers to watch the movie. A film should only be censored when there is a fear of disturbance in social harmony.

Censor Board plays an important role in the quality of todays movies. Nowadays movie makers are targetting for money only not for giving a good movie or message to society. They showing more glamor and attracting youth and making profits.



Censor Boards are nominated for providing certificates to the movie whether it suit for all age or for adults. So it helps to know what kind of movie it is one important thing is it slowly decrease the quality of films and spoiling youths and culture.

Yes friend in my points of views censor should be there in movies. Vulgar scene in movies put bad impact on society and young blood tries to do the same thing in real life and it lead to rape and social molestation in society.

India is a county of villages which still have good sense and joint family system. Parents fear to see any kind of movie together with children.

What is the use and duty of sensor board if this is the situation in society.

Censor boards duty is not to edit films but to classify the movie according to content, so that people make an informed choice whether to watch the movie or not, films should reflect our society so there is no point in editing the content.

Hello friends.

I have gone through each and every post. Well. Censorship is doing its job well what it is supposed to. But regarding our culture it depends upon our moral values how we take it and are not affected by the content shown in abc movies. Though we can't blame censorship in any aspect because what the children are not supposed to see they can go through it by the common sources of technology i.e. internet, smartphone in a very easy way. So its up to our mentality how we are taking it.

Well, if we go through the definition it would be very clear that, censorship in case of films is the board of certification rather than censoring and its business is to classify films on the basis of age appropriate level.

Right to freedoms is very important tenet of a democracy, and morality of country should not subjected to the political dispensation.

India, is a democracy where different strata of people are there, something which is sarcastic for one may be downright outrageous and offensive for others. So censoring is sometimes necessary for smooth functioning of the country. But most of the times its completely ridiculous. I, appreciate UN model where it is decided within industry, what they want to cut and what they know.

From last 5 or 6 years we can notice that our bollywood industry is very much influenced by hollywood. Showing vulgur scenes is very common in hollywood. But I think that the censor board has forgoten that we are living in India which is a religious country. We do have a unique culture which do not permit us for such kind of stuff. So the censor board must band on producing such kind of movies.
