Pahlaj Nihalani Comes To Prasoon Joshi’s Rescue, Issues Certificate To BAREILLY KI BARFI
| |||
Prasoon Joshi was expected to turn in as the Certification Board Chief (CBFC) on Monday. However, as he was under the weather, Prasoon could not make it to the office, due to which various works (including the certification of ‘Bareilly Ki Barfi’) went haywire. A CBFC source quoted, “On Friday, before Pahlaj Nihalani left his office, he had certified many films including Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari’s ‘Bareilly Ki Barfi’ and the Sidharth Malhotra-Jacqueline Fernandez’s thriller, ‘A Gentleman’, scheduled to be released on the two Fridays to come one after the other. These producers were to collect their censor certificates on Monday as per the rules. When Prasoon didn’t turn up at the CBFC office on Monday, all hell broke loose since there was no chairperson to organise the smooth delivery of the certificates.” The report further suggests that producers of ‘Bareilly Ki Barfi’, out of panic, contacted former chief Pahlaj as they wanted their certification. A little birdie informed, “Pahlaj had no choice but to step in to help them out. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have got the certificate. ‘Bareilly Ki Barfi’ would have definitely missed its release this Friday.” Prasoon is expected to start attending office as the new CBFC chairperson from Friday.
