The Indian censor board, which recently received flak for shortening a kissing scene in Hollywood film Spectre, has not disappointed the team of forthcoming erotic thriller Hate Story 3.

Lead actor Sharman Joshi says an ‘A’ certificate was rightly granted to the film.

“The censorship for Hate Story 3 has already been done. We’re happy with the censors and the audience will also be happy with the film,” Joshi said.

The trailer and a few songs from the film have already given a hint of the film’s content.

Joshi plays a corporate executive in the film and is seen protecting his ladylove from a pervert. About his role, he said: “It’s looking interesting and I did this film because of these interest levels.

“The response has been very encouraging. Even our industry colleagues are encouraging us through phone calls and whenever we meet personally. They’re all happy for us because they know the kind of hard work that goes in.”

Hate Story 3, also starring Zareen Khan and Karan Singh Grover, is directed by Vishal Pandya.
