Anurag Kashyap LASHES OUT at the Censor Board for Udta Punjab CONTROVERSY

Anurag Kashyap, one of the producers of "Udta Punjab", has compared the ongoing censorship regarding his upcoming film "Udta Punjab" to the dictator regime of North Korea. The "Bombay Velvet" director said there is no sense of freedom here. He lashed out at the Censor Board and wrote over his Twitter account about what he felt over the entire issue. Checkout some of his tweets: Even the director Ram Gopal Varma came into the support of Anurag Kashyap and expressed. Anurag Kashyap mentioned in his tweets, "I always wondered what it felt like to live in North Korea... Ab to plane pakadney ki bhi zaroorat nahin...," he posted on Twitter. The 43-year-old filmmaker's tweet came after Censor Board had purportedly raised certain objections regarding references to Punjab following which the movie may have to go through some changes. "Udta Punjab", starring Shahid Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Alia Bhatt and Diljit Dosanjh in a pivotal role, deals with the substance abuse in Northen part of the state and its effects on the youth. "There is no film more honest than UDTA PUNJAB...
