Chapter 89 Passed the audit
The film review application has just been submitted less than three days ago, the review department of the Indian Ministry of Culture gave a reply, first of all, this review speed surprised everyone, because the work efficiency of the Indian government functional departments is notoriously slow, slow enough to make anyone who thinks they have good patience collapse, it is said that one of the major reasons why there are many senior Indian employees in multinational companies is that they are very patient, and this is obviously very related to the exercise in India. Everyone has been prepared for at least three months of mental preparation in advance.
Although the content of the reply is very complicated, it is very simple to sum up, that is, as long as a violation of the plot is removed, the film can pass the review, which makes everyone even more surprised, you must know that this is a film that reflects the satirical caste system and exposes the dark inside of India. And it only requires that a plot be removed and can be passed without major revisions, which makes all insiders puzzled.
As for the clip that asked to be deleted, everyone is not surprised at all, because the content of this episode is that after Puran Davy was arrested, a big man privately ordered the prison doctor to take the opportunity to drug Puran Davy to be sterilized, on the grounds that "we don't allow a little bandit queen to appear again". Obviously, as long as the reviewers see such a plot, they will never allow it to pass, which everyone knows very well, but this incident is indeed a fact, so Lakuma still filmed this plot. But neither Shakru nor Rakumar originally expected the episode to be shown in India, but instead to be shown in the United States to attract attention.
Just when Shakru and Lakuma and the others looked at each other and were puzzled, old Patella's phone call relieved him of his doubts: "Shakru, how is it?" Are you satisfied with the results of this audit? ”
As soon as he heard this, Shakru immediately reacted and said in surprise: "Satisfied, satisfied, it's just satisfying and couldn't be more satisfied." Then he lowered his voice and asked, "Who are you looking for?" Is there so much energy? ”
"You don't care about this, anyway, you kid is lucky, it's a good time." Old Patella smiled heartily on the other end of the phone, and then continued to explain: "People specifically asked me to tell you how big the momentum of this film can be when it is released, as for the part that you want to cut, you must not delete it, go and show it as usual, although the review department may symbolically fine you tens of thousands of rupees after the screening, but you can rest assured that there will be no other obstructions, and we don't have to worry about it anymore, someone has arranged it for you." ”
Although he heard a lot of conveniences, Sha Kru was still very apprehensive in his heart, because this matter was obviously a big man using this movie to build momentum or use it as a fuse to hit some people, but he never thought of getting involved in party disputes, although he was a man in two lives, but he still didn't know anything about politics, the water was too deep, but it was not something that a small person like himself could figure out, don't accidentally offend anyone, and in the end he didn't know how to die.
So he said cautiously, "Grandpa Patera, are you asking me to stand in line?" But I'm still young, and I don't have any big ambitions, and politics is really not for me, or this movie won't be shown in India, can you? ”
"What are you foolish boys thinking about? Still standing in line, still in politics? Don't say you don't want to be in politics, even if you want to be in politics, who do you think will want you, you're not Tata, where do the political bigwigs pay attention to you! It's true that there is an element of political struggle in this matter, but it has nothing to do with you, and your power can't attract anyone's attention, so you just go with the flow and have fun with your movie. Also, in the future, there will be fewer movies with such sensitive themes, have you heard it? Old Patella said with a smile in her eyes.
Shakru breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "Whew, that's good, that's good, then I'll go and prepare." And don't worry, I'm definitely not going to make a caste system in my next film, I'm going to make a film about royal life. ”
"Well, that's good, there must be no problem with filming the royal family." Old Patella nodded. It's a pity that if he knows that Shakru intends to shoot "The Princess of the Railway Station", it is difficult to say what his expression will become.
With the guarantee of the old Patella and the secret cooperation of the unknown big man, Shakru planned to take this opportunity to make his film company's debut more spectacular, so he not only arranged for Lakuma, Priti, Modi and other subordinates to increase publicity, but also planned to personally invite a heavyweight premiere guest, that is, the prototype of the heroine of the movie "The Bandit Queen" - Pran David.
It may be because the election is over, so the role of Prandavi, a poor canvasser, is not very good, so Prandavi at this time is not as busy as when Shackloo came to her last time, and it seems that because she is too idle, she is very enthusiastic about Sharkru's visit: "Mr. Pandeit, long time no see!" ”
"Well, long time no see, Ms. Davi! I'm here with good news for you! Shakru said straight to the point.
Prandavy thought for a moment and said, "Is the movie you made for me already finished?" ”
Shakru nodded and said, "Well, you guessed right, it's indeed already filmed." But that's not the good news for me. ”
"Oh? So what is it? Prandavy asked, curious, for she really couldn't think of anything else she could do with the merchant named Pandeit.
"Just yesterday, this movie has passed the review and obtained the right to broadcast in theaters in India, and it has not been cut at all, and it has the right to play it completely!" Shakru replied proudly.
This sentence immediately shocked Pran David, because she had read the script provided to her by Shakru beforehand, and she knew the content very well, so she could not believe that a movie with this kind of content would pass the review without cutting it, and even she felt that even if most of the sensitive content was cut, it would be impossible for the film to be screened in India, so she couldn't help but exclaim: "Oh my God! How is this possible?! Mr. Pandit, how did you do that? ”
PS: I think about the last book, and the 89th chapter was on the shelves
