All better critical movies get a certification slap. The certification is a pure censorship instrument.
"Ram-leela" was pressured to change its title, to get an U/A rating eventually. A too modern interpretation of their sacred Hindu mythos.
"Kaum de Heere" was too positive about the Indira Gandhi assassination.
"Madras Cafe" got an U/A. About the assassination of Rajiv Gandhi.
"Shahid" got an A. A biopic on a human rights activist and advocate, with no violent scenes.
"Dil Se" got an A. One of the classics of indian political movies.
