Want to get your movie banned? Just say Bombay in a dialogue
 
A new list of English and Hindi cuss words issued by the
Central Board of Film Certification covers most of the
popular, but unspoked, unheard, abuses. However, it also
includes some interesting ones like Haramzada which seems
to be popular even among some of our politicians.

New Delhi - At this rate, Beep will also be banned in
Indian cinema theatres in the near future.
 
A new list of English and Hindi cuss words issued by the
Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) covers most of
the popular, but unspoken, unheard, abuses. However, it
also includes some interesting ones like 'Haramzada'
which seems to be popular even among some of our
politicians.
 
While we cannot reproduce the list here for obvious
reasons, we can tell that it has all the usual suspects
and some unusual ones. Some words which are perfectly
parliamentary, but have 'dual uses' have also been
included in the list. So, you cannot use the word
'Patana' in a Hindi movie, or the word screw in an
English one.
