How did you join the Censor Board? <BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>I was moving around, talking to a lot of people, looking for work. I am not quite sure but somebody must have found me interesting and found me good for a position in Censor Board and the next thing I know I get a call from Delhi asking me to meet which I missed. Three months later, I got a call to come to the Censors office and I obliged. The next thing I knew I was asked to join them. <BR><BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>What intrigued you to join Censor Board? <BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>It was just the fact that I get to watch many movies (laughs) and who can get tired of doing something that they actually love. I didnt see it as a job but an experience where I could learn more and more about the movies. There are so many movies coming, some from the country, some from the world and every one of them has something to add and for me that diversity is exciting. There is a lot you can learn as a part of the Censor Board. I did not even know about the kind of movies that was there, the C and D grade films that we obviously dont even come across. There is so much out there and this process of learning is what is exciting for me. <BR><BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>What is your role in Censor Board? <BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>I am a panel member of the board where I watch films. I have a say in what certification should be given to the film. Of course, certain films are a little too obscene. We have to take into account the facts of the film. I do have a say in the film, I mean, if I feel that something should be edited or cut out. However, I do have certain guidelines. I do watch English films, Hindi films among others as a member of CBFC.
