Actor Saif Ali Khan has finally come out to speak his mind in an interview regarding all the controversies around 'Tandav', as well as his own learnings on self-censorship from the whole ordeal.
Speaking in measured tones, Saif explained how he and his team didn't have a lot of ideas when it came to things that should be shown on OTT.

Tandav was their attempt at observing how far can the content go on OTT without going too far.
The actor said, "When we started off, we weren't really sure. We thought there was more freedom, maybe fewer concerns and rules in that sense…
…A lot of people realised that there are certain areas you should stay away from. We were forming some kind of self-censorship, coming up with ideas on how to steer clear of controversy and just bring out a good piece of film…
.. Earlier, we weren't sure. So, in that sense, we are more aware of what the landscape is now."
