In a stroke of generosity, Sanskari Censor Board chief Pahlaj Nihalani has not objected to the use of the Hindi slang for prostitute in Vidya Balan-starrer 'Begum Jaan'.

"We are happy that the Board has appreciated the spirit of the narrative. The vision of the director has been accepted as the final call," producer Vishesh Bhatt tells hitlist.
