India’s censor board had deemed the kissing scenes, including a 33-second smooch, to be “overly sensual” for Indian audiences and demanded they be cut from the film before its cinematic release.
Obviously silly. But why is a single kiss that long?

I have so many questions, what if it’s a picture of them kissing for 33 seconds? Slow motion? What if it’s a weird angle?
i saw it yesterday and i don’t even remember it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Makes no sense - when you're Superman everything you do is overly everything.
No lie those kisses were sensual! LOL, my 12-yo daughter was squirming. Really though, the scene in question was a bit much.
I felt it was a bit much to be honest as well. Felt like it was a bit odd for it to go as long as it did.
Removed because I didn't read article properly and my comments were kind of invalid.
