'Lipstick Under My Burkha' row: Audience is mature enough to understand what is good for them, says producer Prakash Jha

The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) refusing to certify Prakash Jha's upcoming film 'Lipstick Under My Burkha' has started a string of angry responses from all around. Film's producer Prakash Jha on Friday said that audience is mature enough to understand what is good or bad for them. He also said that the censoring should be removed and certification should be applied by the members of the CBFC and no one should have the power to chop anything from a film. He added that he will appeal in the tribunal like he has done before as this is the only option.
