Welcome to the Bollywood la-la land, where bikinis are getting shorter by day just like ethics and the success has become inversely proportional to the length of your rest of the garments, in case you get to wear them. In a nutshell, welcome to the land of Mallika Sherawat and Neha Dhupia.

The only problem with this sleazy utopia is that there is nothing left to shed for the newcomers, who want to beat the current sultry sirens. No wonder they have chosen to touch the extreme. 'Koi Shaque'?

In case you have, better shed it because very soon you'll be able to see the boldest move in the Indian cinema's history, provided The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) doesn't play a nanny with a stick.

Producer-director Vinod Chhabra's Rs 2-crore film Mystery -- Shaque has been shown the red signal by the Censor Board on account of a bare-breasted scene wherein debutante heroine Janki Shah flaunts her asset to the camera.

Director's contention: "This is not the first topless scene in Hindi films. Shekhar Kapur has shown a nude Seema Biswas in Bandit Queen. Raj Kapoor has shown bold scenes in Ram Teri Ganga Maili and Satyam Shivam Sundaram. I'm just trying to prove that women are at par with men. I want to show women as beautiful... and they look most beautiful without clothes."

The argument is not going very well with the men with scissors. According to them, they can't take a chance as 10 other producers would line up outside its office for similar approval.

Is Indian cinema really waking up to the bedroom realism for is it just a sleazy phase that will pass with the time?

The film fraternity is spilt right in the middle over such a sensitive issue. While directors like Karan Razdan and Deepak Shivdasani find nothing wrong if it is intricate to the plot, there are certain others who find it a ploy to grab the eyeballs.

Whatever may be the truth, it's up to you, the audience, to decide whether we should go over the TOP.
