While Hollywood is steadily embracing anti-establishment political themes in its projects, Bollywood seems to be playing it safe. This came to the fore yet again with the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) ordering a few changes in Dr Chandra Prakash Dwivedi's political satire titled 'Zed Plus'. However, it was the director who had the last word.

A source says the Board's examining committee took objection to the 'Pradhan Mantri murdabad' line in the film apart from the usage of certain terms — the committee asked Dwivedi to drop Pradhan from Pradhan Mantri and Bharat from Bharat sarkar. Earlier, the promos had been sent to the revising committee for approval, forcing the filmmaker to defer the release date by a week, say sources.
