Prakash Jha obliges, agrees to Aarakshan cuts

August 11, 2011 14:59

N Ganesh reports that trouble over the film Aarakshan has ended with filmmaker Prakash Jha willing to remove some 'objectionable scenes'.

The development came when Jha who was unwilling to show the film to any one obliged Maharashtra PWD Minister Chaggan Bhujbal, who said there were certain objectionable scenes which Jha agreed to remove from the film.

Ramdas Athavale leader of the Republican Party of India on Thursday after talks with Jha said that his organisation too would not protest against the film as Jha had promised that the 'anti Dalit' scenes would be scrapped.
