From smoking, drinking ban in films to suing IIFA, Nihalani is back in news

Reports are also coming in that Pahlaj might get replaced as CBFC chairperson

Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) chairman Pahlaj Nihalani is once again in the news. Nihalani has sent the organisers of the International Indian Film Awards (IIFA) and its organiser, Wizcraft International a legal notice for making defamatory remarks about him on stage at the event this year.
 

In the five-page notice, Nihalani takes objection to a skit by actors Riteish Deshmukh and Manish Paul, in which they called him a “watchman”. Apparently, during a skit performed by Deshmukh and Paul, Nihalani’s picture was misused. He was referred to as watchman during that skit. IIFA awards were held on July
