British film "7 Days in Entebbe", which revolves around the story of
Operation Entebbe, a 1976 counter-terrorist hostage rescue operation, has been
cleared by the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) for release in India.
The Anil Dhirubhai Ambani-led Reliance Entertainment will distribute the
project in India, and is looking forward to its release, said a spokesperson.
There were some initial hiccups due to the film's opening scene of a Jewish
ballet performance. The censor board didn't know what the lyrics of the ballet
song meant. They asked for the exact translation of the lyrics to ensure it was
not offensive or controversial.
The distributors made that submission and
cleared the doubts, a source in the know said.
Starring Rosamund Pike and
Daniel Bruhl, the Jose Padilha directorial will release pan India on March 16.
