Dilli Dark Makers Asked By CBFC To Add Unique Disclaimer
Last Updated: CBFC asked Dilli Dark makers to add a message clarifying it doesn't depict real Delhi and isn't meant to offend. Directed by Dibya Das Roy, it addresses racism and social issues. If you're going to watch Dilli Dark in the theatre, you might notice something different at the start. The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has asked the makers to add a special message before the movie begins. Dilli Dark, directed by Dibya Das Roy, is a funny but serious movie about racism and social issues in Delhi. The CBFC wanted the filmmakers to add a note saying the movie doesn't show the real Delhi and isn't meant to hurt or offend the people living there. People involved with the movie said the board was worried that some might think the film is attacking Delhi or its citizens. So, this message helps explain that the movie is just a story and not about hurting anyone. An insider told Mid-Day, 'While understanding the satirical tone, the board felt that the narrative might be interpreted by some as a generalisation of Delhi and its residents. The disclaimer was suggested to prevent a backlash." The disclaimer says that the movie is a made-up story. It doesn't show the real life or spirit of Delhi, and it's not meant to hurt or offend the people who live there. Dilli Dark, praised at various film festivals, tells the story of a Nigerian MBA student living in Delhi who faces both obvious and hidden racism. A senior member of the film team, who wished to stay anonymous, said, 'If adding this disclaimer stops people from misunderstanding the film, we're fine with it. But since the movie is already rated A, we don't really think the disclaimer is necessary." Some strong language in the film has also been muted. Dilli Dark is a 2023 Indian drama film made in both English and Hindi. It is directed by Dibakar Das Roy and stars Samuel Abiola Robinson, Geetika Vidya Ohylan, and Shanatu Aham. The film was shown at various film festivals. The plot revolves around Michael Okeke, a charming young man from Nigeria, left his home six years ago to make a life in the busy and often chaotic city of New Delhi. Though he has mixed feelings about the city, he hopes to find true love and a better job. However, life in Delhi pulls him into a tough world revolving around the '4 Cs": cell phone, cocaine, cash, and clients. First Published:

A glossy mauve-pink lip and a traditional red bindi completed her look, while her hair was styled in loose waves, parted to one side for an effortlessly elegant finish. The Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre (NMACC) is set to host a three-day cultural showcase in New York City from September 12 to 14 at the iconic Lincoln Centre. Envisioned by Nita, the event aims to celebrate the vibrancy of Indian heritage through a compelling mix of visual art, music, and live performances.
