Prashanth Neel, the acclaimed director behind the much-anticipated film ‘Salaar,’ recently expressed his disappointment with the censor board’s decisions during the film’s certification process. Despite being open to making several cuts as requested, there were specific scenes vital to the movie’s narrative that Neel was reluctant to remove, as their exclusion would significantly affect the story.
In a conversation with SS Rajamouli, known for interviewing the ‘Salaar’ team, including Prabhas, Prashanth Neel, and Prithviraj Sukumaran, Neel highlighted the challenges faced during the censoring of the film.

He asserted that the violence portrayed in ‘Salaar’ is necessary for the story’s portrayal and isn’t excessive or gratuitous. When discussing this with Prabhas, the lead actor, Prashanth Neel was advised to opt for an ‘A’ certificate by Prabhas himself, considering the importance of these scenes to the narrative.
Overall, Prashanth Neel’s disappointment stemmed from the need to compromise on crucial scenes for the film’s certification, which led him to opt for an ‘A’ rating to maintain the integrity of the story despite the censor board’s requests for cuts.
