Not only the much talked about Lee-Tannishtha sex scene from UnIndian has been chopped by the Board from 68 seconds to 26 seconds, but even the director Anupam Sharma's request to the Board to insert a line declaring that "the scene has been modified for the Indian audience" has been rejected. Above all, Anupam had to adhere to the Board's diktat that the "sideways visual and end climactic shot" of the sex scene has to be eliminated and "not be synchronised with mantra chanting".
