Hopefully, the censor board will look at the film for what it is, how important the film is and what it’s trying to convey. I hope they’ll be reasonable about the film. The sexuality in the film is not supposed to be provocative. We’re not trying to use sexuality for any other purpose. It’s meant to explore people’s sex lives.
