'Crazy Cukkad Family' gets U/A certificate

New Delhi: Filmmaker Prakash Jha's upcoming production venture 'Crazy Cukkad Family' has been granted U/A certificate without a single cut from Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC).

This film, directed by Ritesh Menon, is centred around the dysfunctional Beri family which stars Swanand Kirkire, Shilpa Shukla, Kushal Punjabi, Siddharth Sharma, Ninad Kamat and Nora Fatehi.

"When you try something new and your vision and voice is respected by the Censor board or any other governing body it is very reassuring.

"The film's intent is to send out a positive message about modern day relationships and ultimately is to entertain. I am glad the audience will watch exactly what we have made," Menon said in a statement.

The family film is slated to hit theatres on January 16, 2015 along with Bipasha Basu's horror movie 'Alone'.
