His &quot;I AM&quot; telecast on DD has been stopped because the film doesn&#39;t have a U-certificate, while it got the green signal for satellite channels. Sanjay alleges that the censor is trying to marginalise the audience. <img alt="" src="http://www.mid-day.com/imagedata/2011/apr/sanjay1.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 375px; " /> &quot;The film has a U/A certificate, which means it can be shown on satellite channels, but not Doordarshan. It means they are saying that the audience which is watching DD is not qualified enough to watch a U/A film... what kind of thinking is that? You are actually marginalising the audience,&quot; Sanjay told IANS at the ongoing 12th Osian&#39;s-Cinefan Film Festival. Directed by Onir, &quot;I Am&quot; has been co-produced by the director and Sanjay, who also starred in the movie.u00a0His Assamese film &quot;As The River Flows&quot; has been screened at the festival. The actor was accompanied by the film&#39;s director Bidyut Kotoky.u00a0 The 41-year-old expressed his dismay over statutory warnings that filmmakers are asked to put out saying: &quot;Filmmakers are asked to put a warning here or there. It&#39;s a tough time.&quot;u00a0The actor feels that the censors need to bring in a right rating system. &quot;A film showing hardcore violence is given a U/A certificate, while another showing a kiss is given an A certificate. What is more gross than watching an eight-year-old kid holding a gun and shooting a police officer in the film?u00a0&quot;The censors need to bring a proper rating system that such films should be for audiences aged 12, 15, 18 etc,&quot; he said.u00a0
