Leonardo DiCaprio-starrer “The Revenant” to release in India without any cut

Leonardo DiCaprio-starrer “The Revenant” is planned for release in India on February 26 and it has been passed by the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) with an A certificate and without any cut.
This has been reported in indianexpress.com dated 22 February 2016.

The film has a heavy dose of violence and plenty cuss words and there were apprehensions about possible cuts because the stance of CBFC is usually harsh on such aspects. But, there was relief all around when it was released minus cuts. Of course, there are just two muted words because the board felt it was derogatory to women.
CBFC was impressed with ‘The Revenant’ since it has won acclaim and has also won quite a few prestigious awards apart from being a front runner at the Oscars. Hence, the CBFC was lenient.
The movie is inspired by true events and is about one man’s epic adventure of survival and revenge. It is directed by Alejandro Inarritu and also stars Tom Hardy, Domhnall Gleeson and Paul Anderson.
