SRK's Don escapes Adult tag!

Farhan Akhtar's Don has been given an U/A certificate by the Central Board of Film Certification with no cuts. The film was screened for the Censor Board members on Monday.

Vinayak Azad, regional officer of the CBFC said, "We have issued an U/A certificate to the film with no cuts."

Asked about the alleged smoking scenes which angered the health minister, Azad said, "There is no smoking scene in the film, there is only one scene where there is a smoke ring around Shah Rukh Khan's face, but the character does not have a cigarette in his hand.

The only reason an U/A certificate was issued to the film is because of the violence portrayed in it."

Union health minister Abumani Ramadoss had insisted on issuing an 'A' certificate to films with smoking scenes. The health ministry will soon be issuing a new notification where films with smoking scenes will have to carry strong editorial justification for their inclusion.
