    • Alternate versions
      Prior to its theatrical release, the CBFC (Central Board of Film Certification) film ordered 41 cuts to grant the film a U/A (parental guidance) classification. However, according to the director Vishal Bhardwaj, the board asked for only 7 cuts, but he himself gave the film 35 extra cuts to tighten the script.

    Haider..... It's a mother-son chemistry that storms the screen.
    Shahid kapoor has hit the bull's eye this time with haider. The ease with which he unveils the character of Hamlet on screen needs an OUT- standing ovation. He has exploited all his talent in the movie and has left no stone unturned. The other eye catching character is the protagonist's mother and I guess no one could have dine it better than Tabu. She has been a brilliant actress and again proves her mettle here. Kay Kay menon and Irrfan Khan are as always superb. Shraddha kapoor is sweet but does not have much to do. Overall, to go or not to go is not a question at all. It's a must watch and undoubtedly the best movie of year 2014 till now.
