Mirzapur: The Movie makers are aiming for an ‘A’ certificate, reveals director Gurmmeet Singh
Speaking concerning the certification process, Singh said the team has tried to retain the essence of Mirzapur while working inside the Central Board of Film Certification’s (CBFC) guidelines.
“We’re targeting an Adults Only certification immediately. Then, in fact, the CBFC has its own guidelines regarding language, what we will say, and what we will not. We have tried to administer that and strike the suitable balance.”
Director believes audiences are open to mature storytelling
Singh also said he believes audiences have turn out to be more receptive to movies made for mature viewers, allowing filmmakers greater creative freedom.
“I also think audiences have matured. In the event you take a look at movies like Animal, Dhurandhar, and a number of other other recent releases, you may see that adult storytelling is now finding space in theatres. I believe that has also set a precedent, allowing us to bring something like Mirzapur: The Movie to the massive screen without watering it down.”
