USA: Free $30 Oye! Times readers Get FREE $30 to spend on Amazon, Walmart…The intrinsically violent Badlapur which tells the tale of a man getting even with his wife's killer has been cleared without any visual cuts. However, the axe has fallen on the 'F' word, not once but twice over.

Says a source, "While the violent visual content of Badlapur has been given a go-ahead by the CBFC they have objected to three abusive words which have now been deleted."

Apparently, the 'F' word has been knocked off twice. The word 'f..k' has been replaced by 'hell' and the word 'f..king' has been muted. Elsewhere the Hindi abuse 'chutiya' had to be replaced by 'yeda'.

Director Sriram Raghavan seems fine with the cuts. "The language is commensurate with the characters' state of mind. These are not your average dinner-table conversationalists. Nawazuddin is a killer. Varun Dhawan is a man on a rampage. Huma Qureshi plays a prostitute."
