Censor objects to frontal nudity in 'Rang Rasiya'







Censor objects to frontal nudity in 'Rang Rasiya'


Ketan Mehta’s film Rang Rasiya has run into trouble at the Censor Board because of a frontal nudity scene shot on Nandana Sen .

The movie, starring Randeep Hooda and Nandana, is based on the life of famous painter Raja Ravi Varma who painted nude women way back in late 19th century and early 20th century despite strong opposition from some groups. While Randeep plays the painter, Nandana plays his muse Sugunabai who posed nude for him.



It’s obvious that a film of such a controversial subject would feature some nudity in it. One such scene is a wide angle shot that shows a bare breast of the skimpily clad Nandana Sen.

Though the scene is aesthetically shot, certain members of the Censor Board have found it objectionable and send it to the Revising Committee for a wider consensus.

A final decision is likely to come within days.

It can be recalled that Nandana Sen had previously shot a dare-bare scene for Tango Charlie .
