Black Panther has had a sentence of its dialogue removed in India so as not to offend religious sensibilities. Mild spoilers for Black Panther to follow.
io9 reports that at a domestic screening in India, the use of the name of the Hindu god Hanuman wasn't very well received.
Subsequently, the line "glory to Hanuman" from the leader of the Jabari tribe, was muted in screenings across the country.
There's some disagreement over whether this decision came from India's Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC), or the film's producers, but either way, they obviously thought it best to err on the side of caution when it came to potentially upsetting their audience.
