Spectre, the latest film in the Bond franchise, is scheduled to release on November 20, but the Indian Censor Board only cleared it after cutting two kissing scenes for being too lengthy.
As expected, the Indian internet was unforgiving.
1.
Censor Board cuts length of James Bond's kisses. Because, in India, love is private, hate is public.
2.
New Censor Board Rule: The only kind of kissing allowed now is Mr. Pahlaj Nihalani kissing PM's ass.
3.
Perhaps the censor board might've been ok with non-consensual kissing cos that's mostly how censor approved desi heroes did it in the past
4.
"Kissing is against Indian culture" - some random uncle with 6 kids.
