Morover..the harsh criticism is for a person..or may be a director/producer of movie...how can u have harsh criticism for the movie???...it has to be censored...

PS: i think IIM shd outsource the CAT paper....they just cant make an unambiguous paper....
mate, 'censor' means to 'supress' or 'cut' or 'delete' a part (or entire) of a movie (or book)..now, censor board has a legitimate right to 'delete' scenes from a movie, a critic can only criticise it and do nothing to change its content..or delete a part (or parts)..a critic can NEVER censor (coz,and i repeat, censor means 'to delete')..
and regarding the 'critics in the censor board', they 'censor' (and it means they pick a scissor and 'cut' the reel out)..
i hop i have been able 2 clarify it..

Buddy, something can be crticised harshly, but can't be snipped harshly. Period.

my google doesnt suggest 'censored' wen i type 'censured'..moreovr, censor also is a noun..meanin people authorised to censor..morevr wen google says 'critics censor artistic freedom' it means that due to the attitude of critics, artistic freedom in no longer available..(as in it is 'deleted' , so to say..)

dude, i rest my arguments here..this has gone on too long..
