The much-awaited Pushpa-2 movie, starring Allu Arjun, has faced unexpected censorship issues in Saudi Arabia. Reports from national media reveal that the Saudi Arabian Censor Board made significant cuts to the film, removing a 19-minute sequence. Sources claim that the cuts were made due to content that was deemed offensive, specifically related to religious references.
One of the key issues was a scene involving Bunny Ammavari’s getup, which reportedly included references to Hindu deities. This part of the film did not sit well with the authorities in Saudi Arabia, leading to its removal. As a result, the final version of Pushpa-2 being screened in the country will be 3 hours and 1 minute long, with the controversial portions excised.
This isn’t the first time a film has faced censorship in Saudi Arabia. Recently, films like Singam Again and Bhool Bhulaiyaa-3 were also banned in the country for similar reasons. Despite the cuts, Pushpa-2 is expected to perform well at the box office, although its full version remains unavailable in some territories.
