Sharmila Tagore's Tenure at CBFC

Sharmila Tagore was the head of the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) in India.

She started in 2004 and tried to make the CBFC more about certifying films rather than censoring them.

During her time, many films like Rang De Basanti and My Brother Nikhil were released without much trouble.

She believed in giving films the right certification instead of cutting scenes.

However, she faced criticism for some decisions.

For example, she supported her son's film, Omkara, which had strong language, and people thought she was being unfair.

She also made a mistake by giving the film Ghajini a U/A certificate, which had too much violence for children.

She even offered to resign because of this.

She also thought the government's rule about showing a warning before smoking scenes in films was silly.

Overall, she tried to be fair and let films be shown as they were meant to be, but not everyone agreed with her decisions.
