‘Apne pair par khud kulhaadi…', This director called Govinda 'foolish' because of…, his name is…
Bollywood actor Govinda is best known for ruling the industry in the 90s, giving back-to-back blockbusters one after another. However, slowly, his stardom began to diminish, which later became a huge concern for his die-hard admirers as they were not able to see their favorite star anymore on the big screen. Recently, filmmaker, producer and former CBFC chief Pahlaj Nihalani openly talked about Govinda's career. Many Tried To Spoil Govinda…
During an interview with Vicky Lalwani, Pahlaj Nihalani, who did iconic films with Govinda such as Aankhen, Ilzaam and Shola Aur Shabnam, talked about Govinda and mentioned that many people tried to spoil his career. There were also his rival stars who wanted him to end his career soon. He said, 'Govinda was an all-rounder individual. He managed his career well, but due to his vulnerability, he easily puts his trust in others, and the environment around him is not positive, which leads him to stray. He associates with pandits (astrologers, fortune tellers) and immerses himself in that context and belief system. However, people often do not take those discussions seriously. Such dialogues and this surrounding atmosphere are harmful to his career in the film industry. He ended his answer by saying, 'Inhi sab wajahon ke kaaran wo barbaad hua aur usne apne pairon par swayam kulhaadi maar li thi.' Pahlaj Nihalani Refers Govinda As Nasamajh Due To…
Pahlaj referred to Govinda as 'nasamajh' and used his film Partner as an example to illustrate this point. He stated, 'Govinda is so nasamajh that in Partner, David Dhawan specifically wanted him for that role, but it was suggested that David and Salman assisted Govinda during his career downturn. Yet, Govinda became emotional and is so unaware. They behaved as if they were doing Govinda a favor, but they genuinely only wanted him to portray that character.' Pahlaj Nihalani Accuses David Dhawan
Pahlaj further accused David Dhawan of influencing Govinda negatively and stirring animosity between them, revealing that this was the reason their collaboration ended. He said, 'David Dhawan had filled Govinda's mind with poison against me.' Pahlaj explained that David harbored resentment towards him, believing that he made profits from the 1993 film Aankhen, starring Govinda. However, Pahlaj contended that he was the film's producer and the one who conceived the story that turned into a feature film. He also mentioned that Anees Bazmee wrote the movie's dialogues and that David Dhawan was the director, but he claimed David was more like a 'dummy director.'

CBFC Directs Sitaare Zameen Par Makers to Include Quote by Modi Mentioning the Year 2047: Report
Film The suggestion to include Modi's quote is part of the five changes/suggestions to the film which the CBFC has directed the makers to incorporate. Videograb from the trailer of Sitaare Zameen Par. Photo: New Delhi: The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has directed the makers of the Aamir Khan-starrer movie Sitaare Zameen Par to include a quote by Prime Minister Narendra Modi mentioning the year 2047 in the opening disclaimer. The suggestion to include Modi's quote is part of the five changes/suggestions to the film which the CBFC has directed the makers to incorporate, reported Hindustan Times. The film was subsequently issued a U/A certification on June 17, which confirms that the modifications were done, with the Prime Minister's quote inserted after the film's opening disclaimer, which has also been changed as per the CBFC's directions. The newspaper reported that it was not immediately clear what the quote is about. The movie, which is set to release on June 20, stars Aamir Khan and Genelia Deshmukh, and tells the story of a basketball coach who teaches the sport to a team of intellectually disabled people as community service after the directions of a court. The other changes in the movie directed by CBFC were the replacement of the term 'business woman' with 'business person'; a 30-second disclaimer at the beginning of the film be replaced with a 26-second voice-over; a visual containing the word 'kamal' (lotus) be removed, along with its appearance in subtitles; and 'Michael Jackson' be replaced with 'Lovebirds' in the subtitles. In recent years, the CBFC has increasingly been suggesting cuts and modifications in movie scenes. In April this year, the CBFC had asked the makers of the film Phule to remove several caste-based terms, after objection from Brahmin outfits, resulting in the postponing of its release. The directive of CBFC included removing terms such as 'Mahar', 'Mang', 'Peshvai', and 'Manu's system of caste', with the censor board terming them as 'sensitive.' Ananth Mahadevan, the director of Phule had told The Wire that he didn't agree with the modifications suggested by the CBFC.

For the unversed, Sitaare Zameen Par marks the return of Aamir Khan to the big screens after three years. His last release was Laal Singh Chaddha, which was a debacle at the box office. All eyes are now on the audience reception and box office performance of the film. It is the spiritual sequel to Taare Zameen Par. The Central Board of Film Certification greenlit the movie after suggesting a few cuts. However, the Dangal actor was reluctant to make changes. After the issue was resolved, CBFC granted a UA 13+ certificate to the movie. This means that the movie is suitable for the kids above 13 years of age but the children below that age bracket must have parental guidance. Furthermore, the sports comedy drama has also been cleared by the British Board, and it has already given a green signal for the movie to release in the UK. It has received 12A+ certificate from the BBFC. Stay tuned to Pinkvilla for more updates.
