In an evolving world, emerging research continues to highlight concerns that could impact everyday wellbeing. Here’s the key update you should know about:
CBFC removes Kiara Advani’s bikini visuals from War 2:
The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has cleared War 2 with a few modifications, but not without making some noticeable cuts. While the action sequences have been left untouched, certain audio and visual elements were asked to be altered.
As per a report in BollyHungama, the CBFC instructed the makers to mute “inappropriate references” in both dialogues and visuals at six points in the film. One ‘obscene’ dialogue was replaced with an approved sentence, and just a minute later, a two-second ‘obscene’ gesture by a character was completely removed.

The biggest change, however, comes in the form of reduced sensual content. The CBFC reportedly asked the team to cut such visuals by 50%, which amounts to about nine seconds of screen time. These visuals are believed to be from Kiara Advani’s much-talked-about bikini sequence in the song Aavan Jaavan.

Kiara’s bold and glamorous look in War 2 had already created a frenzy online when glimpses were shown in the film’s teaser and trailer. The song Aavan Jaavan offered more of this sizzling avatar, which instantly went viral and became a trending topic. Fans had eagerly anticipated seeing the full sequence on the big screen. However, with the CBFC’s nine-second cut, some of those moments will no longer be part of the theatrical release.
