Tagging 'Jungle Book' U/A is shame: Mukesh Bhatt

 New Delhi: Film producer Mukesh Bhatt has recently vented out his anger over the U/A given to the 'Jungle Book' by the CBFC. During the red carpet of the GIMA awards, the 63-year-old producer said, "This shows how crazy this country has become. If Jungle Book can get U/A, then I think the government needs to do some very serious thinking about CBFC. CBFC should be put in a garbage can." When asked about Pahlaj Nihalani's reasoning behind the U/A, Bhat said, "I am not talking about Nihalani. He is just a stooge of the people who have put him there. If a 'Jungle Book' can get a U/A, shame on India." Further, talking about the same actor, Ayushmann Khurrana said, "I don't know what's the criteria behind this, but the kids are used to these stories, the watch Iron Man and Captain America. I think they should have given it a U certificate because it is a children's film." 'Jungle Book' will hit the theatres on April 9.
