Manmarziyaan Controversies: Anurag and Tapsee reacted on twitter overbust over deleted film scenes. Manmarziyaan Director Anurag Kashyap who has been in a happy space these last few months, moulding his first screen love story, Manmarziyaan. Anurag Kashyap and his leading lady Taapsee Pannu have taken to Twitter to express their displeasure about the order to delete three "objectionable" scenes in their film. 

CBFC (Central Board Of Film Certification) ordered the 'Manmarziyaan' team on Wednesday for deletion of scenes featuring Abhishek Bachchan and Taapsee Pannu smoking and another of Taapsee's character entering a Gurudwara to get married while thinking of her ex-flame played by Vicky Kaushal.

The order was passed by the district magistrate, Jammu, Ramesh Kumar following a representation by a Sikh organisation, which said the film had hurt the religious sentiments of the community, officials said. After the film's release, some Sikh groups in North India held protests and filed a complaint with the Jammu district magistrate.



 "It is hereby ordered that the four scenes that hurt the sentiments of the Sikh community be deleted or blocked from the film before it is screened in the cinema halls," the officials said quoting an order issued by the district magistrate.

"Congratulations. Here by all problems of Punjab are solved and Sikh youth have been saved," Kashyap tweeted. Kashyap posted the mobile number of Kishore Lulla, the chairperson of Eros International, in his original tweet. He edited the post after being contacted by Twitter's support team.

Aanand L Rai issued a statement late in the evening, taking responsibility for the post-release excisions. "These cuts were made on a call taken by Colour Yellow Team"Rai said in his statement. "I feel we need to understand that this controversy happened after the film has released which leaves the producers and studio extremely vulnerable. Further, If the concept of the film itself was smoking, we would've taken a stand like we did for Udta Punjab."

Lead actress Taapsee Pannu tweeted her displeasure on Thursday over the deletion of the scenes " I am sure this edit will assure that no Sikh will ever Smoke and no woman will ever think about ANYONE else while getting married in a Gurudwara. This surely will make Waheguru proud and assures that MY religion is the purest,most righteous and peaceful! #Proud " Taapsee tweeted.

Anurag Kashyap had first spoken out about the controversy on Wednesday in a note posted to Twitter.

"This film is not commenting on a community, it talks about individuals and their choices," he wrote. "Every step of the way, we asked for guidance from Sikh people for the film. When we shot the sequence in Gurudwara, we were told we can't shoot them getting married as it can't be faked so we made the actors do only "mattha tekna"."
