The government appointed 18 members to the Central Board of Film Certification on Wednesday, marking the first reconstitution of the body in nine years.
The new board includes actors Suniel Shetty, Preity Zinta, Pankaj Tripathi and Prosenjit Chatterjee, alongside filmmaker Priyadarshan and musician Ricky Kej.
The newly appointed members will serve a three-year term under the Cinematograph Act 1952, following Shashi Shekhar Vempati's appointment as chairperson in May.
