2 Oct
Summary
- Verity receives an 'A' certificate from Indian censors.
- Explicit scenes were modified, leading to 23 seconds of cuts.
- The film is based on Colleen Hoover's popular 2018 novel.
The psychological thriller 'Verity,' starring Anne Hathaway and Dakota Johnson, is set to premiere in Indian cinemas on October 2 with an 'A' certificate. The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) mandated several cuts, totaling 23 seconds, before clearing the film on September 29.
Reportedly, the CBFC's Examining Committee requested modifications to intimate visuals and explicit content, with a significant portion of the deleted footage stemming from a make-out sequence. Additionally, anti-smoking and anti-alcohol warnings were ordered, an e-cigarette visual removed, and a medicine brand name blurred.
The film, based on Colleen Hoover's 2018 novel, follows a struggling writer hired to complete a series for an injured author. Her discovery of a hidden manuscript reveals shocking secrets about the author's past. Josh Hartnett also features in the cast, with the final runtime standing at 118 minutes and 41 seconds.
