The second production of 'Mungaru Male' fame E.Krishnappa 'Moggina Manasu' is caught in the censor trouble. On the contents in the film the Bangalore regional censor board chief Chandrasekhar gave 'A' certificate and that has irked the producer. This is belittling of my prestige and it is not 'A' grade film argued the producer and also inquired with the women censor board members who were present.

'I am a responsible personality in the society'. What do the people think about me said Krishnappa to the censor members for denying the U certificate. You have done a film of teen age girls that is the reason why we are forced to give the 'A' certificate said the censor chief. The attitude of E.Krishnappa has perturbed the censor chief in the heated exchange of words. Producer Krishnappa did not agree for the 'A' certificate.

The censor chief Chadrasekhar did not budge. Now a letter of complaint from each of them has reached the Karnataka film chamber of commerce. The intervention of the President of Kannada film producers association Sandesh Nagaraj in this case has not been fruitful.

Meanwhile the regional censor board has approached the Mumbai office for finalizing the certificate. 'Moggina Manasu' scheduled for release on 28th of April has now been postponed. The theatre booking, hoardings displayed and prints ordered has affected the producer E.Krishnappa to the extent of Rs.40 lakhs says the production in-charge Mr Pratap.
