/> Till yesterday evening, the team of Agyaat was worried if Censor board would come down heavily on the film.

Other than the fact that the film is an adventure thriller (that's the way Ramu insists on calling the film rather than slotting it as a 'supernatural thriller' or a 'horror flick' or a 'slasher drama'), what further worried Agyaat team was the rundown that it had with the Censor board around the controversial number in Rann.

However, there was nothing untoward that happened once the film was shown to Censors as they happily passed it with just two minor cuts.

Not just that, they also granted the film a U/A certificate, something that is a good reason to celebrate. Reason being that Ramu's earlier horror/thriller films like Raat, Bhoot, Kaun and Phoonk have all been handed over an 'A' certificate.

The two cuts which have been made though are from the song 'Shiv Shambhu'. Picturised on Priyanka Kothari, the song has a few shots featuring a 'chillam' with the leading lady getting into a 'dum maaro' act.

Says a source attached to the film, "Censors felt that depicting such shots from the film would go against their anti- smoking stance. As per them, the song would have been better off if these two shots were cut.

We also complied and didn't complain much. Yes, we do feel though that it would have been better had the song remained as it is since it's a part of a film being shot within a film. But then, it's ok."

How about the gore factor? The film belonging to such genre is bound to be embellished with gory elements, isn't it? So how did Censors agree to that?

"First and foremost let this be clarified that the film isn't gory by any means", the source adds, "Ramu has his own ways of invoking fear and showing gore belonging to Ramsays brand doesn't fit in well with his kind of storytelling."

Ramu has the final word here, "You don't always require horrible looking/distorted faces to get the message across. Sometimes, the challenge lies in the very fact that you have to scare audiences with just the right sound effects, background and camera effects. This is what you will get to see in Agyaat as well."

The film releases next Friday i.e. 7th July.
