Kamal Haasan seems to be extremely pleased with the censor board officials this time around. The star, in a press release to share his moments with the censor board officials during the certification process of Viswaroopam, has said that he was offered a choice between opting for an A certificate or undergo some cuts to get an UA.

Though Kamal did not want any scenes to be chopped off, considering the business parameters and advice from well-wishers that Viswaroopam should reach a larger audience, he opted for an UA for both Tamil and Hindi version as well, states the press note.

Recalling some tough moments with the censor officials in the past, particularly during the certification of Hey Ram, Kamal said that it was indeed a pleasant experience now.
