Shahid Kapoor has spoken out about digital censorship ahead of the release of his next OTT project, Bloody Daddy.
In an interview with India Today, Kapoor stated that he dislikes being censored but is fine with being certified.
“I don’t like being censored personally. “I’m fine with being certified.”
“At a poor level, I would say, you certify, but censor would mean nobody can see something, whereas adults can choose to watch or not watch it,” the Farzi star added. So, I believe I would be enticed to pursue certification, but beyond that, it is up to them.”
Salman Khan previously expressed his thoughts on the subject. He believes that there is a need for censorship on OTT platforms.

“Kids as young as 15 or 16 years old can watch them all. Would you like it if your young daughter watches it? I just think the content on OTT should be checked. The cleaner the content, the better it will be. It will also have a better viewership.”
On the professional front, the Chup Chup Ke actor was last seen in his debut OTT web-series Farzi along with Kay Kay Menon that turned out to be a massive hit on Amazon Prime.
Shahid Kapoor is now looking forward to the release of his next OTT film, Bloody Daddy, directed by Ali Abbas Zafar. The film is set to stream on JioCinemas App on June 9.
“I really believe there should be censorship in the medium (OTT),” Khan added. All of these vulgarities, nudity, and gaali galauch (swearing) should be prohibited.”
“Children as young as 15 or 16 can watch them all.” Would you mind if your young daughter saw it? I simply believe that the content on OTT should be reviewed. The better the content, the cleaner it is. It will also have a larger audience.”
