On top of that, Amazon is also offering some titles such as Om-Dar-B-Darand Titli that were criticized by many in India. The company has, however, blurred some stills that showed nudity.
That particular episode of The Grand Touris one of the few videos where Amazon has cut more than a couple of seconds, according to people familiar with the matter. The vast majority of content on Amazon Prime Video for India is untouched, sources at the industry and company added. Less than one percent of the catalog has been censored, another person said. The people didn't want to be identified.
Censorship of content isn't unheard of in India. TV channels often self-censor content in accordance with their audience and local law. Two people added that Amazon is closely watching how the local authority handles a recent controversial RTI application where censorship on Netflix and Hotstar was sought for offering unfiltered content on their respective services.
