The Censor Board has taken a hatchet to SPECTRE, which opens in India this Friday and the hapless Daniel Craig, who plays James Bond, has allegedly had his kissing scenes slashed by 50% and a couple of swearwords deleted.

SPECTRE, the 24th Bond film, also stars Christoph Waltz, Ralph Fiennes, Lea Seydoux, Naomie Harris and Andrew Scott.
