Controversy
As per CBI, Censor board of India's CEO Rakesh Kumar cleared this movie in June after accepting a bribe. He is currently in custody though the film producer refused the allegations and said if it was such a case why would they wait for such a long time they would have given it in February.
The Film Producer Satish Katyal has appealed to the Film Certification Appellate Tribunal (FCAT) to get clearance for this movie.
The controversial film is based on the assassins of Indira Gandhi, who are allegedly glorified in the movie. However, many Sikhs believe that film is the true depiction of the Sikh's community feelings against atrocities of the Indira Gandhi government.
