'Bombay Velvet' Granted U/A Certificate

Darpan News Desk IANS, 12 May, 2015 12:18 PM
  • 'Bombay Velvet' Granted U/A Certificate
The Revising Committee of the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has granted a U/A certificate to Ranbir Kapoor and Anushka Sharma starrer "Bombay Velvet".
 
Accordingly, the film can be seen by viewers of all ages but it comes with parental guidance for children below 12 years of age. 
 
The film was certified 'A' by the CBFC, following which Kashyap approached the Revising Committee as he did not consider the period drama was an "adult film".
 
He had immense faith that the committee would give the film correct certification.
 
The film is a romantic thriller, set against the backdrop of the 1960s Bombay. The film has Ranbir playing the role of the angry, young lover Johnny Balraj and Anushka playing the role of the singer Rosie Noronha. It also stars Karan Johar as the villain.
 
It releases on Friday.
