Ajay Devgn's 'Shaitaan' Censor Certificate and Official Runtime Revealed

Mumbai, March 5 - Bollywood star Ajay Devgn set to thrill the audiences with his upcoming supernatural thriller film Shaitaan, co-starring R. Madhavan, Jyothika, and Janki Bodiwala. The Vikas Bahl's directorial movie is gearing up to release on March 8 on the occasion of Mahashivrati.

Shaitaan is said to be the remake of the Gujarati film Vash, however, unlike the original version, the upcoming film has been granted a U/A certificate by the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). The original movie got an 'A' (adult only) certificate from the censor board.



According to reports, Shaitaan received 4 modifications from the Examining Committee (EC) of the CBFC while Vash was censored only after 8 major cuts. While the original film was 1 hour and 57 minutes long, Shaitaan reportedly has 2 hours and 12 minutes theatrical runtime.

With the change in certification, it can be assumed that Shaitaan will be less gory than the original film.

Shaitaan is produced by Devgn Films, Jio Studios, and Panorama Studios. It revolves around a happy family, who go on a vacation to a secluded village, where they encounter a mysterious man, who claims to be their well-wisher. However, he has a sinister motive and uses black magic to manipulate and torment them. The family soon realize that they are in grave danger, and must fight for their survival against the evil forces.
