Problem 8 - Entrance Test

Which 2006 Anurag Kashyap film was refused a censor certificate for containing a 2-minute single-take monologue that directly quotes from the 1975 Emergency-era government circular banning RSS & Jamaat-e-Islami?

Correct: C

‘Paanch’, inspired by the 1997 Joshi-Abhyankar murders, had its climactic character recite verbatim portions of the 4 July 1975 Home Ministry gazette. The CBFC felt this violated Section 5B(1) of Cinematograph Act; the film remains unreleased theatrically, surviving only in festival bootlegs.
