After reviewing the film again the censor board gave approx 13 cuts and changes to the film ahead of giving the U/A certificate.
Expressing her disappointment Ranaut said at that time, “Meri film pe hi Emergency lag gayi hai. Bahut hi nirashajanak ye sthiti hai.

I’m quite disappointed by our country and whatever the circumstances are).”
The Queen alum also shared, “We’ll keep telling those ridiculous stories otherwise. We’ll get scared by someone today, someone else tomorrow. People will keep scaring us because we get scared so easily. How much will we keep getting scared? I’ve made this film with a lot of self-respect which is why the CBFC can’t point out any contention.”
Backed by Zee Studios, Manikarnika Films, and Renu Pitti, the movie also features notable actors like Mahima Chaudhary, Milind Soman, Shreyas Talpade, Anupam Kher, Vishak Nair, and the late Satish Kaushik.
