Soumitra Ranade’s crowd-funded remake of  the 1980s’ classic Albert Pinto Ko Gussa Kyun Aata Hai was almost taken to the cleaners  by  the CBFC.

Apparently  the  film is cluttured with cusswords and profanities in both English and Hindi.

The film has been passed  by the Examining Committee with some  minor cut with an ‘A’ certificate.

According to sources the CBFC’s new chairperson Prasoon Joshi has decided to not allow the Tribunal to be burdened with unnecessary re-viewing of  films impeded by the CBFC.

“Cuss words that the Tribunal allowed in  films like Babumosha iBandookbaaz have been allowed by the Examining Committee of the CBFC in Albert Pinto Ka Gussa Kyun Aata Hai.Earlier certain words were unceremoniously chopped off. But this time , rather than have the film being taken to the Tribunal , Prasoon Joshi has made sure the CBFC keeps its trimming tendencies down to the minimum.”

Albert Pinto Ko Gussa Kyun Aata Hai is   a remake of  a 1980 film of the same title featuring Naseeruddin Shah, Shabana Azmi and SmitaPatil. Surprisingly Shabana seemed unaware  of the remake until very recently.
