CBFC directs 'The Crew' makers to replace cuss words for theatrical release

Still from The Crew trailer

Kriti Sanon, Kareena Kapoor, and Tabu-starrer power-packed comedy film 'The Crew' is all set to hit the theatres on March 29. The trailer of the film was launched in the city on Saturday and has received a largely positive response. However, the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has directed the makers to incorporate some changes ahead of the theatrical release of the film. The Board has asked the makers to replace some cuss words used in the film.

In the trailer of the film. Tabu's character can be seen cussing multiple times. In the theatrical cut, the cuss words will be replaced by alternate words suggested by CBFC. Tabu, who plays an air hostess in the film, can be seen saying "Baith ch'''ye" in a scene in the trailer. Now, the final film will showcase the same scene where the word 'ch'''ye' has been replaced by 'bhootiye.' Similarly, another scene showcases her saying 'har'''zaade', which is now been replaced with 'ameerzaade' and 'har'''iyon' has been changed to 'kameeno.'
