Following that, it was noted that the CBFC's Examining Committee viewed the film on 22 June, but feedback was not provided to the makers until the film was referred to the Revising Committee on 25 June.[7][8] The Revising Committee screening took place on 29 July and received a U/A certificate with no cuts.[9]
