First Indian gay film to be cut by censors?

Kapil Sharma's latest film Dunno Y… Na Jaane Kyun could face serious cuts from Indian censors because of its gay sex scenes.

Director Sanjay Sharma was asked to remove the sequence featuring leads Sharma and Yuvraaj Parasher, Bollywood Hungama has reported.

In an interview with the site, co-star Karpal said: "Why should the censors be scandalised if two men are kissing and making love?

"The ones in my film are very aesthetic. And so what if it's two men making love? Love is love regardless of gender."

The film is the first Indian movie to feature a sex scene between two men. It has been resubmitted to the revising committee, in a bid to keep the scenes.
