No point in protesting against 'Pathaan' after Censor Board 'corrections': MP Home Minister

Bhopal, Jan 25 (PTI) Madhya Pradesh Home Minister Narottam Mishra, among the first politicians to raise objection against Bollywood film 'Pathaan' over certain scenes, on Wednesday said there was no point in protesting anymore against the Shahrukh Khan-starrer movie as the Censor Board has already "taken care" of controversial words.

Some right-wing organisations held protests against the movie in parts of Madhya Pradesh on the day of its release on Wednesday over certain scenes, forcing some theatres in Indore and Bhopal to cancel the morning shows.

“I believe all rectifications have been made in it (film). The Censor Board has made corrections. Controversial words have been removed. So, I don't see any point in protesting now,” Mishra told reporters when asked about demonstrations against 'Pathaan' in Madhya Pradesh.
