/> It looks like Bangla bombshell Paoli Dam's plans to seduce the nation into an orgasmic stupor with her never-before bold-and-brazen love-making act would now have to be content with a relatively tame visual treatment.

On Monday afternoon Paoli's ‘I-fuk-with-those-who-fuk-with me' shock therapy in the film Hate Story got a bit of a jolt when the censorboard ordered all the love-making scenes to be drastically reduced.

Speaking on the reduction of the sex content Mr J. P Singh, the CBFC (censorboad of film certifications)'s Regional Officer Mumbai, said, "All the love-making scenes, around 6 of them, were reduced by 50 percent and the film was given an ‘A' certificate. "

Surprisingly the hard-hitting dialogues have been left intact. Says Mr Singh, "There was no cutting of the dialogues only visuals. "



While the Hate Story director Vivek Agnihotri said he was unaware oof censorial developments as he was getting the prints ready, producer Vikram Bhatt seemed surprisingly gung-ho with the cuts.

Said Bhatt, "The censorboard has been great. They've passed all the dialogues and only got us to cut the excesses in the love-making scenes. I'm extremely pleased with their progressive thinking. "
