The censorship of films has been severe and for the smallest of things in some scene or sequence that is found objectionable. There was no definition of the term 'objectionable material' and it was widely dependent on the whims and wishes of the various examining committees who watched the films. At times, even the chairpersons were found to be overbearing and indulged in nitpicking. The censors never worked on precedents and its own decisions were never uniform.
