New Censor diktat: No cellphone number on screen without NOC : Bollywood News

Here comes more musibat for our movie makers from the Censor Board, though we can’t say this one is unfair.

New Censor diktat: No cellphone number on screen without NOC

For many years now the use of random cellphone numbers on screen has resulted in a situation of minor crisis with those owning the numbers mentioned on screen claiming harassment through nuisance calls. No longer so. If a film mentions a cellphone number, the filmmaker must provide a NOC.

Says a source from the Censor Board, “You can no longer simply rattle off a cell number on screen. You must provide proof that the number belongs to someone known and that person has given his or consent for the number to be used.”
