MUMBAI: You will probably not see a ‘smoking’ hot Kareena Kapoor in Heroine, as shots of her smoking in the trailer of the film have been censored before being cleared.

The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has decided to blur all images of smoking from feature films.

“We’ve taken a decision some time back to show no smoking in trailers. This is because in a trailer, there can be no disclaimer about smoking. In the full-length feature film, there has to be disclaimer about smoking at the beginning and after interval. Even then the smoking sequences are blurred,” said JP Singh, CBFC’s regional officer in Mumbai.

Singh also confirmed the censoring of Kareena’s smoking scene as well as some love-making scenes and expletives in the trailer of Madhur Bhandarkar’s Heroine.

    Of late there is a lot of on screen smoking going on in out TV dramas. Its a sudden surge and makes one wonder if the cigarette lobby is throwing money in this direction to subtly promote smoking – decidedly not a good thing.
