Few days back, there were reports that Pahlaj Nihalani would be removed as the chief of CBFC. Well, we had our own doubts on this news and thought that it could be fake. But no, this news is true and today, Pahlaj Nihalani has been sacked as the Chief of CBFC.
Want to know who replaced him? Well, it’s Prasoon Joshi, the renowned lyricist! There were also reports that Chandraprakash Diwedi, Madhur Bhandarkar and Prakash Jha were being considered for this position, but at last it’s Prasoon Joshi who has taken his position.
Prasoon Joshi is one of the best lyricists and writers and will surely do justice to his post. We all know how Sanskari Pahlaj Nihalani was; he always suggested unwanted cuts in the films and in return, people would target his “Sanskari” behavior. Hope there are no more controversies now.
Here’s how Twitter reacted;
Wonder what Prasoon Joshi has in store for us!
