Superman's Big Kiss Was Cut By The Censors In India

This censorship has sparked backlash from the Indian film industry, with actors expressing frustration over restrictions on creative content. This incident is part of an ongoing pattern of censorship from India's CBFC, which has faced criticism before for altering films.
