Apart from demanding a long list of cuts, Nihalani and other censor board members allegedly berated Nandy’s producer, Kiran Shroff, for her dress sense. On August 2, Nandy and other members of the Indian Film and Television Directors’ Association held a press conference and took a stand against Nihalani’s methods. On August 11, Nihalani was sacked as the censor board chief and replaced by advertising professional and lyricist Prasoon Joshi.

Babumoshai Bandookbaaz has intimate scenes because of which the movie has been given ‘A’ certification. The director also gave a big thank you to the ones who supported him throughout the entire battle. Nawazuddin also tweeted saying: “Thanks FCAT for clearing ‘Babumoshai Bandookbaaz‘ with minor voluntary cuts. The film will now release with its original flavour on August 25.”
