About Film
Satya Prakash's POV


Is not banning of Cinema against  human endeavor & progress ?

Doctor Chandraprakash Dwivedi 's directed film " MOHALLA ASSI" has completely  been censored from releasing. The language of the film is a bone of contention between Censor Board and Film Maker. The film based upon a famous Hindi Novel" Kashi ka Assi" hovers around a bank of Ganges ,named Assi. Professor Kashinath Singh is a great novelist and story writer and he has used local languages and few words of abuse that keep ASSI very active.

Film "Mohalla Assi" has been shelved because it exposes expanding materialism among  religious activists who thrive on such religious practice that bizarrely fascinates foreigners girls and boys who get victim of so called spiritualism that involves them into world of grass and  so called yoga that manifests various styles of cupidity with girls from foreign country.  


Freedom of expression of art and cinema is being reduced to such a ban on the release of the film " Mohalla Assi" by Censor Board of India, raises a series of questions on the present government 's intention to control artist's manifestation.

The director doctor Chandraprakash Dwivedi  has been  an awesome actor-director irrespective of his political thought I disagree. He made a national awarded movie " PINJAR" based upon novel "PINJAR" authored by late Amrita Pritam who was satisfied with the directorial craft of director. Dr. Chandra Prakash Dwevedi  brilliantly worked as director and actor Chanakya in famous TV show" Chankya".



I am ,therefore, confident that Dr.Dwivedi must have directed the film so brilliantly. The prejudice and grumpiness towards Art and Cinema because of certain right wing ideology  is not good enough for the educational, inventive  and arty progression of India. The ban of a film because of filthy allegation of the local language used in the film cannot be a healthy step of Censor Board.

The film has great actors like Sunny Deol, Sakshi Tanwar, Mukesh Tiwari and other brilliant actors of India and abroad.


Censor Board headed by man  and Pune Film Institute headed by director from right wing ideology patronized by BJP have raised eyebrows and frowns of artists and that's why students have been agitating and they are having a meet with I & B Minister at New Delhi on 3rd of July 2015.


One's idea, one's art and manifestations in various forms of arts cannot be controlled . This is against human endearing effort of art and aesthetic.
