EXCLUSIVE: Raja Shivaji is 3 hours 15 minutes long; joins elite club of Animal, Pushpa 2, Dhurandhar, Border 2; CBFC replaces child violence visual in Riteish Deshmukh-starrer Until around two-and-a-half years ago, making a film with a runtime of over three hours was largely frowned upon.

In between, Border 2 (2026) also joined the league with a runtime of 199 minutes. Interestingly, all these films emerged as huge grossers. And now, Raja Shivaji is all set to join this coveted club. Bollywood Hungama has exclusively learned that the historical drama completed its censor process yesterday, on April 24. As per the censor certificate, Raja Shivaji’s Marathi version is 195. 05 minutes long. In other words, it has a duration of 3 hours, 15 minutes and 5 seconds. The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) passed the film with a U/A 16+ certificate. However, the film had to undergo a few modifications as per the advice of the Examining Committee (EC) of the CBFC. The makers had to modify the disclaimer with more clarity and stronger words along with a voiceover.

Bohiragoto vs Bhadralok: Bengal’s identity battle heats up as parties 'fish' for votes As the campaign sharpens, the familiar charge of “bohiragoto” has returned to the centre of the political stage, with the All India Trinamool Congress (TMC) reviving a narrative that helped it decisively blunt the rise of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) five years ago. The immediate trigger this time, as seen in the reaction to Leander Paes joining the BJP, shows how quickly the labels are deployed as "outsider, parachuted, not one of us". #years_ago #Bharatiya_Janata #Janata_Party #Trinamool_Congress #battle_heats #India_Trinamool #campaign_sharpens #political_stage #identity_battle #familiar_charge
