Americans react to India's CBFC censoring David Corenswet-Rachel Brosnahan's kissing scene in Superman: 'Didn't they write the Kama Sutra?'

David Corenswet & Rachel Brosnahan starrer Superman, which released last Friday, minted over $200 million at the global box office in its opening weekend. Apart from the USA, the superhero movie has also performed in international territories, including India.

However, India’s CBFC cut the 33-second kissing scene between actors David Corenswet and Rachel Brosnahan (playing Superman and Lois Lane) and reduced it to just a few seconds, deeming them too ‘sensual’.

While many Indian fans and celebs slammed CBFC for this, the international media has also reported on the development. A USA portal, The Entertainment Weekly carried the news with the title ‘Indian film board cuts Superman kissing scene after deeming them too ‘sensual’.

As the portal shared this news on their social media, several Americans reacted to the development. “1.4 billion Indians. I’m pretty sure their population already have a clue about the birds and bees,” wrote one user. “Didn’t they write the Kama Sutra?” another user asked.

“God forbid Superman kissing Lois Lane! That would be too ‘sensual’! That’ll be too far for our core audience!” wrote another user.

Directed by James Gunn, Superman also features Nicholas Hoult, Edi Gathegi, Anthony Carrigan, Nathan Fillion, and Isabela Merced. The film has garnered positive reviews across the globe from critics and fans.
