No steamy love scenes in Hindi version of Trishna: Sunil Bohra

Freida Pinto doesn’t want Indian audiences to see the steamy signs of her upcoming film Trishna. The film has Freida and Riz Ahmed burn up the screen with their brutal sex scenes, the kind seldom seen in mainstream movies. In fact so steamy are the sex scenes in the film that the producers have decided to present two different versions of the film, one in English and the other in Hindi, to the Censor Board. Apparently, Freida, who is very anxious about these graphic scenes of love-making, hopes that they won’t be shown to the Indian audiences. Riz Ahmed is shown pulling out all stops in the film with Freida when his character turns bestial in his lust for her. In fact, these love-making scenes are so exciting that Trishna’s producer Sunil Bohra has decided to present two versions of the film to the Censor Board. “The dubbed Hindi version would be shown to the Censors with the love scenes reduced. I can’t remove them since they carry the story forward. But I can reduce them. I’ll present the English version of Trishna to the Censor Board with the love scenes intact. They have more liberal rules about sex in foreign films,” explains Bohra.
