Dhaakad: Kangana Ranaut, Arjun Rampal’s action thriller passes with ‘A’ certificate

Kangana Ranaut’s Dhaakad is a movie that fans are eagerly looking forward to watching on the big screens. The latest reports about the movie confirms that the movie has now been censored with an “A” certificate. 

According to Times of India, the movie has received an A certificate from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) and has a runtime of 2 hours 10 minutes. However, no parts from the original movie were deleted from the final draft. 

As per the report, the movie has a number of action scenes which prompted the CBFC to not give it a U/A certificate. And furthermore, the makers did not want to affect the flow of the movie.

Sohail Maklai, the producer of Dhaakad told the publication, “I am not disappointed; Yes, we have got an A certificate for Dhaakad. I sort of expected it, because the film has loads of action”.

The makers had previously released two trailers for the movie, both of which were well accepted by the fans and now have over 57 million views on YouTube combined. The trailer also hinted that the movie will have a number of high-octane action scenes as well as some graphic violence.

Razneesh Ghai, the movie’s director, had said in a previous interview that all the action scenes in the movie are well grounded and that Kangana is part of a 14 minute long action sequence. 

Apart from Kangana in the lead, Arjun Rampal plays the main antagonist. Divya Dutta, and Saswata Chatterjee will also appear in important roles. The movie will see Kangana play Agent Agni, who is in the trailer of Arjun Rampal’s notorious criminal. 

Dhaakad, which promises to be an action thriller, is set to hit theatres on May 20.
