The Central Board of Film Certification was reconstituted on 16 September 2026 with an eighteen member panel, more than six years after the three year term of its previous board lapsed in 2020. The new board, headed by CBFC chairperson Shashi Shekhar Vempati, includes actors Preity Zinta, Pankaj Tripathi, Suniel Shetty, Pallavi Joshi and Prosenjit Chatterjee, filmmaker Priyadarshan and three time Grammy winning musician Ricky Kej, among others, and has been constituted for three years or until further orders. Only two members of the outgoing board, theatre director Waman Kendre and writer Ramesh Patange, have been retained.
