CBFC cuts male nudity shot in Challengers but in a RARE instance, retains Zendaya’s see-through bra explicit sex scene

The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC), as is well known, often heavily comes down on explicit intimate scenes even after passing films with an ‘A’ certificate. As a result, moviegoers in India, who ventured out to watch the latest Hollywood release Challengers, were stunned to see that two intense sex scenes were left untouched by the Censors.

The film stars Zendaya, of Spider-Man, Dune and Euphoria fame, and is also one of the producers of the film, which also features Josh O’Connor and Mike Faist. The film caught the attention of viewers across the globe last year when the first teaser dropped depicting Zendaya having a threesome with Josh and Mike.

A source told Bollywood Hungama, “The CBFC’s Examining Committee didn’t touch this much-talked-about scene. Moreover, another intimate scene, between Zendaya and a male actor, is much more explicit. It even features Zendaya wearing a see-through bra. There were fears that there would be a repeat of what happened during Oppenheimer (2023), when Florence Pugh’s nude scene was edited with a CGI-made black dress. Thankfully, nothing of that sort needed to be done for this film. The scene was passed; not a single second was cut.”

But the CBFC did ask for some changes. The source continued, “There’s a scene where a male actor shows his bare buttocks. The CBFC refused to pass the scene. Hence, the studio zoomed in on the male actor to hide his bare behind. A similar modification was done for another scene where a character in the dressing room walks around naked while two characters in the background are having a shower.”

Apart from these changes, the cut list of the CBFC suggests that an abusive word was muted while the cigarette brand was asked to be blurred. Once these changes were made, Challengers was passed with an ‘A’ certificate. The certificate was handed over on April 25, that is, just a day before the film’s release.

Challengers is about a former tennis player who is now a coach for her husband. Things take a turn when they bump into their old friend after years.

Fahmaan Khan describes ‘saarthis’ as a guiding light; says, “Krishna Mohini is a tribute to these saarthis”

Breaking stereotypes, their bond transcends conventional roles, as Krishna Mohini promises to redefine the core of a brother-sister relationship with its belief ‘Krishna Behen Ka Farz Aise Nibhayegi…Ki Duniya Mein, Rakhi Ki Paribhasha Badal Jayegi’. Showcasing this endearing bond between siblings, the story is set against Dwarka’s scenic beauty and coastal charm and it stars Debattama Saha as Krishna, Ketaki Kulkarni as Mohan, and Fahmaan Khan as Aryaman. Aiming to release this week, the makers and the cast share their excitement, ahead of its premiere.

Alok Jain, President, General Entertainment, Viacom18, shared, “At COLORS, we are committed in pioneering stories that deeply resonate with our viewers’ emotions. Our new offering ‘Krishna Mohini’, is one such story that celebrates the unbreakable bond between a brother and sister, defying stereotypes and transcending the connections beyond traditional roles. The show underlines the importance of having a ‘saarthi’ by one’s side further tracing the journey of an elder sister who is a guiding light for her brother. With this heartfelt narrative we aim to foster a deep emotional connection that goes beyond entertainment.”

Navigating the turbulent seas of life can seem daunting with obstacles and uncertainties challenging every step one wants to take towards a chosen path. During such times, having a ‘saarthi’ is like having a force akin to a lighthouse guiding ships through treacherous waters. Talking about playing ‘saarthi’ Krishna, Debattama Saha said, “Bringing Krishna’s character to life in ‘Krishna Mohini’ has been an absolute privilege. Like a ‘saarthi’ illuminating the darkest nights, Krishna’s character casts a light to her brother, and is always ready to protect him from life’s tumultuous seas. The universal theme of unconditional and boundless love makes Krishna Mohini an ode to the unbreakable bond shared between brothers and sisters.”

However, this voyage is not merely a tale of a sister serving as a steadfast guiding force in his journey, but it also anchors the journey of Krishna who is destined to meet Aryaman. He is a reticent businessman who abandoned his musical aspirations to pursue entrepreneurship and is reminded of his days as a musician, blown away by her singing prowess.

Fahmaan Khan playing the role of Aryaman added, “Having a saarthi, a true companion is like discovering a guiding star in the vast expanse of the night sky. I’m excited to be part of ‘Krishna Mohini’ that tributes these saarthis. In this show, I will be seen essaying the role of Aryaman, a successful businessman, hard-working and determined, however, beneath the façade of success lies a backstory that shapes his journey. As the story will unfold, the collision of Krishna and Aryaman’s worlds, each carrying their burdens and aspirations, promises to unravel a gripping tale.”

Produced by Susanta Das and Nispal Singh’s Boyhood Productions, Krishna Mohini premieres on April 29 and will air every day at 7:00 pm only on Colors.
