Here are some of the many films blocked from release due to political pressure:
▪️Anurag Kashyap’s Kennedy & Maximum City
▪️Honey Tehran’s Punjab 95
▪️Sandhya Suri’s Santosh
▪️Dev Patel’s Monkey Man
▪️Dibakar Banerjee’s Tees
To add to this censorships whoch happen in movies based on caste issues. Recent one being Homebound. Its embarrassing.
Like what?!?
Give e example….
India has always had one of the most lenient censorship when it comes to political ideologies as long as I can remember.
They are harsh only on nudity & violence & that’s also come a longway now.
The reigning regime uses it as tool for propaganda yes….but it was always the case & happens in US too.
Also, before talking about other countries, can you also look at our own country and check how many movies are banned/still pending releases or are censored heavily because they don't align with ruling government's ideology? Dusro ko bhashan dene se pehle khud ki country mein toh censorship rok lo pehle.
To be honest the amount of pre-alpha games that were being showcased (in M$’s case just CG Concepts) in the last decade+ that would have no clear & visible release windows has ruined the expectations of viewers from these shows.
Games used to reveal to release in 2 years & now that’s what’s happening & how it should be.
