Kerala High Court: 'U/A' Certification for Film "Pani" Upheld; Movie Stars Joju George

The Kerala High Court upheld the 'U/A' certification for the film "Pani," starring Joju George. The petitioner challenged the certification, arguing that the movie contained content unsuitable for children. The court examined the content and context of the scenes in question and found that the certification was appropriately granted. The 'U/A' certification allows for unrestricted public exhibition but advises parental guidance for children under 12. The court emphasized the role of the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) in assessing and certifying films and ruled that its decision was within the bounds of reasonableness and did not warrant interference.
