Kamal Haasan jokes about censorship at college fest

Veteran actor Kamal Haasan recently graced the Women's Christian College's Festeve '26 fest in Chennai as the chief guest. Addressing the students, he also presented his documentary, 'Lead on Gandhi.' During the screening, the film experienced a temporary technical halt. Haasan responded with a witty remark about censorship, which elicited laughter from the audience and eased the moment.

The college management swiftly rectified the technical issue, allowing the documentary screening to resume. This incident echoes Haasan's recent vocal advocacy for reforms in the film certification process across India. He has previously called for "reasoned justification" for any suggested edits, highlighting the importance of transparency and respect for cinematic art.
