BOMBAY, India (AP) - Movies shown on Indian television will be monitored for violence, nudity and bad language — and yanked off the air under a court order if deemed unsuitable for children — broadcasters said Thursday.
The Bombay High Court earlier this week ruled that all movies shown on TV networks in western Maharashtra state must be approved for general TV by India's government-appointed Censor Board.
Since movies can't be broadcast separately for one state, key broadcasters Star and Sony networks said the ban on adult-rated movies would apply nationwide.
