Censor Clarity on 'Manam'

For complete family entertainer films, Censor Board never keeps any hurdles in any form from giving a pure U certification. Only and only if board members find any elements of adult orientation, they go for A or U/A certification! Most likely everyone thought of Akkineni family multi star film ‘Manam’ will come out with a clean U certificate due to the promotions and content in the film. However, the movie is awarded U/A certificate for one reason.

Please do not think that there is heavy bloodshed or overt titillating skin show from any of our heroines Samanta or Shriya. No, it is not so. Inner film sources say that ‘Manam’ had lot of drinking scenes between ANR, Nagarjuna and Chaitanya which is the reason why Censor recommended for U/A. As director Vikram Kumar and hero Nagarjuna do not want to delete or edit those scenes, they have gone for it.
