Glad to see that @anuragkashyap72 is not alining with any political party think that's the mistake most independent protest do like #ftii. Not da 1st time censors have effected a movie but now more there ever is da time for censor board reforms with Hollywood doing better. Only way v can compete with Hollywood is if v stop aping them and start saying stories that are native and some of them will be issue based.’
