Prabhas is gearing up for the release of his next movie, The Raja Saab. While fans are eagerly waiting for Maruthi’s directorial, it has now been reported that the film has received two major cuts from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC).
As reported by Bollywood Hungama, the makers of The Raja Saab were asked to delete or modify a scene in which blood was being washed on the floor. To this, the makers modified the scene to monochrome, i.e. depicted in black and white. Besides this, a scene where a character is beheaded has also been shortened by 4 seconds.
Following the changes, The Raja Saab was granted a U/A 16+ certificate. The film’s final length is 189.00 minutes, which is around 3 hours and 9 minutes.
