Strictures for Lifu Isthene :Cinejwala:

Enthusiastic director Pawan Kumar out of over confidence did not obtain permission from the regional censor board for 12 minutes addition and change in the climax  portions for ‘Lifu Ishtene’. He is paying penalty now.

The regional censor board officer Nagaraj K has filed a police complaint for violations of the rules. Director Pawankumar has incorporated the suggested cuts once  again it is known. The film is now in complications.

In the third week 12 minutes of length have been increased and not brought to the notice of the Regional Censor Board. A case has been filed at the Upparpet Police  stations on producers Syed Salam, Manjunatha Gowda and Upednra Shetty. The case has been filed under the Photographic Act.

One of the producers Manjunath expressed his ignorance on the development.
