Mumbai: The producer and director of "Lateef - The King of Crime", a film based on the Gujarat mafia of the late 1980s, are upset that the Central Board of Film Certification has objected to their promoting the movie on TV due to a specific dialogue related to Gujarat.
The movie has released but its makers faced trouble in getting their 20-second trailer passed, and they can't promote it on TV due to the objection.
Producer Kewal Krishna said in a statement: "We were geared to run promos on TV during the movie release. We approached the censor board and there was a cut. Then on July 23, we tried again. The order was passed and we received it on July 27. The film was released on Aug 1."
However, they did not get a chance to run promos, causing losses.
