Jabariya Jodi: CBFC makes nine changes in Sidharth Malhotra-Parineeti Chopra film, removes reference to masturbation

The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has made quite a few changes in the original version of Sidharth Malhotra-Parineeti Chopra-starrer Jabariya Jodi, giving it a U/A certificate. A few abusive words have been replaced with milder words.

Apart from muting these words “ma***” and “ma**”, the word “ha****” has been replaced by two different words at different places — it is changed to “baklol” once and “bawli” the second time. The word “chu******” has also been replaced with “bewakufi”. The reference to masturbation (that was also seen in the trailer of the film), has also been removed.

Here is a complete list of all the changes recommended by the CBFC:
