MUMBAI: Looks like the Shahid Kapoor starrer Mausam has been mired by controversies.

First, it was the cow scene that made the Censor Board to stop the exhibition of the film‘s promo. And now the Indian Air Force (IAF) has objected to certain action scenes in the film, in which the actor essays the role of a fighter pilot.

The IAF has raised objection to an action scene in the film and has held back the No Objection Certificate (NOC) until the changes are made. Unless the IAF grants this film an NOC, the Censor Board will not accept it for review.

However, producer Sheetal Talwar said this would not be possible at this late hour because it would require a re shoot and also affect the plot.

 
While the IAF refused to discuss the details of their objection, spokesperson Wing Commander Gerard Galway said the change they sought was minor. "We have objected to only about 30 seconds of the film. Pankaj Kapoor has otherwise done a wonderful job of portraying an IAF officer and the entire movie is authentic."

Galway said that they had a healthy discussion with the director and producer over the objectionable part. "They were very gracious and agreed to do something about it. Once the scene is rectified, the NOC will be granted."

A love story starring Shahid and Sonam Kapoor, the film is scheduled to hit the screens on 16 September.
