The Censor Board has passed a kissing scene between Maradona Rebello and Amit Purohit in Pankh without any cuts. Another sequence, where Maradona goes fully nude has also been passed, albeit with his back blurred, and a few words have been beeped out.

Director Sudipto Chattopadhyaya is upset that Pankh has been portrayed as a lurid film. He claims that the kiss is actually a case of molestation as Amit's character, in a drunken state, assumes Maradona's character Jerry is gay and forcefully kisses him. He also claims the nude scene is a pivotal scene as it is an attempt by Jerry to come out from under his mother's domination.
