According to several media reports, abusive word b******d, used multiple times in the film, was replaced by 'behan di'. A popular rum brand was changed to 'Bold Monk'.
Also, Lok Sabha was mentioned in one of the dialogues and the CBFC reportedly asked the makers to remove it and not even replace it with any other term. In the Rabindranath Tagore scene, a certain word was replaced with 'koi filter'.
Reportedly, an entire dialogue about West Bengal Chief Minister, Mamata Banerjee, was asked to be deleted and in one of the lingerie shop scenes, bra was replaced with 'item'. It was termed as 'degrading' women and 'vulgar'.
