Mahesh Bhatt compares 'Jism 2' to 'Last Tango In Paris'
Filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt has seen the final cut of "Jism 2" and feels it is on a par with Italian romance drama "Last Tango In Paris", known for explicit sexual content.
"Just showed my father the final cut of 'Jism 2'. His comment 'Jism 2' is India's answer to 'Last Tango In Paris'," tweeted "Jism 2" director Pooja Bhatt.
"Last Tango In Paris" featured Marlon Brando as a widower who
develops a sexual relationship with a woman without knowing anything
about her.
Though the story of "Jism 2" is diametrically different, the movie is expected to have a lot of steamy scenes featuring Sunny Leone, Arunoday Singh and Randeep Hooda.
Please note Shekhar Suman wants Indo-Canadian porn star Sunny Leone as the leading lady in his directorial venture "Heartless", which also features his son Adhyayan.
Won't accept cuts that mutilate 'Jism 2': Pooja Bhatt
Pooja Bhatt's bold project "Jism 2" is set to get a verdict from the Central Board of Film Certification Wednesday and the actress-turned-director says she won't accept any cuts that will alter her narrative.
"Verdict on 'Jism 2' Censors tomorrow (Wednesday). No way I am going to accept cuts that mutilate my film. But if the cuts work, shall be gracious," tweeted Pooja Tuesday night.
Recalling the days when "Jism" underwent the censors' scanner, Pooja wrote: "Ten years ago when we 'censored' 'Jism', they cut out two shots that seem laughable in this day and age, but were considered provocative then.
"I accepted the two cuts on 'Jism' 10 years ago because it did not mar our narrative in the least and frankly, made our edit far more aesthetic," she added.
"Jism 2" also features Randeep Hooda and Arunoday Singh, and releases on 2 August 2012.
'Jism 2' for common man who understands erotica: Pooja
Filmmaker Pooja Bhatt's "Jism 2" has been passed with an A-certificate by the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). She says it is an adult film that targets mature audiences.
The 40-year-old said the film doesn't target only multiplex audiences, adding she does not make "elite films".
"I don't wish it to be an elite product. I am catering the man on the streets and women who understand 'the erotica'. It is an erotic sensual thriller...," she added.
She clarified that she never wanted children to watch it.
"We applied for an 'A' because I am very clear that I want an 'A' and not a 'U/A'. I am not making the the film for children, it's an adult film for adult sensibilities. The adult audience is a sizeable number and it is big enough for my film," Pooja told IANS.
Talking about the cuts made, she says there were few changes done.
"The censor board asked me to decrease the length of shots at four places or replace it with another one. Three out of which are in songs and one is a scene. One of them is the the song 'Yeh kasoor', which is already out on the internet," she said adding that censor board left the cuts to "director's discretion".
"I think, by saying that they are being rather mature. I made the changes and genuinely felt it made my film more erotic. Otherwise, they did not tampered with a single dialogue or a scene.
"I have not tampered with sensual content at all. I promise, apart from 'Jism' 1, 'Jism 2' will be the most sensual film of our times and I assure that I will deliver that promise," she said.
"Jism 2", releasing Aug 3, is a sequel to the 2003 film, features Indo-Canadian porn star Sunny Leone, with Arunoday Singh and Randeep Hooda.
Do you know-
Sunny Leone had asked for medical certificates of Randeep Hooda & Arunoday Singh then only she agreed to work in the film.
We are wondering why all the three actors - Sunny Leone, Randeep Hooda & Arunoday Singh have not been featured together on any Jism 2 poster. Are you too wondering the same?
