Director Priyadarshan is reported to have been given a list of suggested cuts by the Indian Censor board, relating to the film's political violence and adult language, reports PTI.
Producer Kumar Mangat told the news agency: "They wanted us to make more than a dozen-odd cuts due to these factors. If we would have consented to that, Aakrosh would have got a U/A certificate."
Although most production houses strive to avoid getting an adult rating, Mangat explained why in this case it was preferable.
"Aakrosh wasn't designed as a kiddie flick in any case. This is a dramatic affair and inspired by related stories. It was not the best case scenario but still, given the circumstances, it is okay."
The hard-hitting project, which also features Akshaye Khanna, Paresh Rawal and Reema Sen, releases October 15.
