EXCLUSIVE: Billie Eilish – Hit Me Hard And Soft: The Tour’s India release pushed after CBFC suggests several cuts
A source told Bollywood Hungama, “The CBFC’s Examining Committee asked for several cuts in the documentary. The Paramount Pictures team in India then decided to inform the US head office and seek approval on whether the changes suggested by the Censor Board could be made. The head office’s core team reviewed the suggested changes and gave its nod. This whole process took some time, resulting in a delay for the censor process of Billie Eilish – Hit Me Hard And Soft: The Tour. The makers then decided to push the release. As of now, they are eyeing a May 15 release.”
