The recent Cinematograph (Certification) Rules, 2024 notified by the Centre introduce several key features:
  • Introduction of the 'X' category for films with explicit sexual content and nudity.
  • Creation of a sub-category within the 'UA' rating for films that include drug abuse scenes.
  • Provision for re-certification of films within a specified time frame.
  • Establishment of a three-member expert committee for reviewing complaints related to certification.
The major implications of these rules include a more specific classification of films based on content, greater transparency in the certification process, and improved mechanisms for addressing grievances related to film certification. These rules aim to provide clearer guidelines for filmmakers and ensure a more systematic approach to film certification in India.
