Overview

• Dhadak 2, a social drama exploring caste discrimination, was cleared by the CBFC after 16 edits, including changes to dialogues and removal of sensitive content.
• Caste slurs such as 'chamar' and 'bhangi' were muted and replaced with the term 'junglee' to avoid offense.
• A Tulsidas doha in a song was replaced with a couplet emphasizing subtle resistance, and political references were rephrased to soften their tone.
• Visual changes included censoring a urination scene, trimming a scene depicting a father’s humiliation, and replacing a violent scene with a black screen.
• The film's disclaimer was extended from 20 seconds to 1 minute and 51 seconds, with the requirement that it be read aloud during screenings.
