Akshay Kumar starrer 'Airlift' granted all-clear by Censor Board

Akshay Kumar, Nimrat Kaur starrer 'Airlift' releases on this Friday and reportedly, 'Airlift' has been granted all-clear with a 'UA' certificate. The Censor Board has waved the green signal for "tremendous emotional stress and heightened drama".

The director Raja Krishna Menon is very happy about this and talking about it, he said "The CBFC watched the film in the spirit it was conceived and directed. They understood what we were trying to achieve, so I'm grateful that they certified it without any verbal or visual cuts,"

One of the prominent speakers of the CBFC stated "We saw absolutely no reason to cut a single moment in 'Airlift'. Mr Shyam Benegal, who we all respect immensely, thinks the censor board should not behave like a school teacher. So we are behaving like liberal school teachers. Imagine what the classroom would be like without teachers. We are here to certify films, not cut them,"
