Censor axes Ishq Bector & Rakhi Sawant


As if the public spat between desi firebrand Rakhi Sawant and India’s mad-max music import from Canada Ishq Bector was not enough, the censor board has jumed in too. The duo had hardly realised the trouble they’d fall into with their album titled ‘Jhagde’ which has been in the news for some reason or the other.

But this time it is far more serious than a fight – the Censor Board has issued a diktat that they need to delete or bleep out the word ‘kaminey’ from the opening verse of their video which goes like “Kamine tera bhoot chad gaya re”.

As expected Miss Sawant is fast to reply saying that the Censor Board needs brain surgery breaking into her own version of the song: “Censor Board tera bhoot chad gaya re”. While Rakhi is taking a straight dig at the Board, composer, writer and singer Ishq is furious too. According to him the word ‘kaminey’ has been passed so many times in umpteen films earlier. What’s the point of banning it now. He said he would not take things lying down. And if need be he would garner public support and land up at their office to protest. Let the ‘jhagda’ begin!
