by The Daily Eye Team August 4 2015, 3:57 pm Estimated Reading Time: 0 mins, 45 secsDraconian rules and laws related to the use of animals in Bollywood films have eventuated in a situation where producers are afraid to use animals in their films. One has come to know through reliable sources, that moves are afoot to change some of the rules of Animal Welfare Board Of India.
The Censor Board’s Chairperson Pahlaj Nihalani is all for changes in the rules related to animal protection. “If we continue to be over-sensitive about the use of animals, we’ll soon stop using animals in our films completely. The rules regarding animal welfare are such that even if you have an electronic bird or a plastic snake in a scene, you have to announce that they are not real animals. This is like announcing that a character who has just died on screen is not really dead.”
