'Mr. & Mrs. Mahi' secures rare 'U' certificate without cuts
Mr. & Mrs. Mahi, featuring Rajkummar Rao and Janhvi Kapoor, is slated for a May 31 release. The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has approved the movie without any edits and granted it a 'U' certificate, reported Bollywood Hungama on Saturday. A source told the portal, "It is very rare for a film nowadays to get a 'U' certificate as the content tends to have action, intimacy, etc. which might not be ideal for family viewing."
CBFC's Examining Committee gave the film a clean chit
The source from Bollywood Hungama elaborated, "The Examining Committee of the CBFC didn't feel the need to cut, modify or reduce any scene or dialogue." Reportedly, the committee only requested that the title and end credits be mentioned in Hindi and references for cricket-related content consultation be submitted. The censor certificate was handed over to the producers on May 21. Its runtime is 139 minutes (2 hours and 19 minutes).
