    NEW DELHI: The Central government on Monday recommended six major changes to the controversial film ‘Udaipur Files,’ including replacing the name of a key character, altering an AI-generated execution scene, and deleting sensitive dialogues. The film will not be released until July 24, when the Supreme Court is scheduled to hear the case.The recommendations came from a government-appointed committee formed following the Delhi high court’s July 10 order. While the CBFC had earlier cleared the film with 50 cuts, the Centre has now approved its release with further modifications, pending the apex court’s decision.The panel has directed filmmakers to replace the original disclaimer, remove credit frames thanking specific individuals, and delete a graphic AI-generated scene resembling an execution. It also advised removing all mentions of the character “Nutan Sharma,” replacing the name, and deleting her dialogue that references religious texts. “Delete Nutan Sharma’s dialogue: ‘…maine toh wohi kaha hai jo unke dharma grantho mein likha hai…’,” the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting stated.Certain dialogues about the Balochi community have also been flagged for deletion.The Supreme Court had earlier asked the government to act through appropriate statutory channels and instructed the panel to consider the perspective of the accused in the 2022 murder of Udaipur tailor Kanhaiya Lal, the subject of the film. The Delhi high court had stayed the film’s release despite censor board clearance, citing concerns about communal disharmony.
