Aarush Varma’s Petition To Change ‘A’ Certification
But given its ‘A’ certificate, ironically, people who are its intended target audience may not end up watching the film. As per Bollywood Hungama, OMG 2 star Aarush Varma, who plays the character of Pankaj Tripathi’s son, has filed a petition for removal of this ‘A’ certification!
“This film could have been an eye-opener. Being a 16-year-old, I know the issues we face and there are so many things for which we do not find the right answer. I urge all of you to help me sign this petition so that the government reviews the stand of A certificate and makes it U/A so that all my friends can see it,” – Aarush wrote in his petition.
Even Akshay Kumar was of the opinion that the film should be seen by teenagers. He commented – “This is the first adult film which is made for teenagers. This should be shown in schools.”
