Actors John Abraham and Sharvari Wagh's action saga 'Vedaa' finally got the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) clearance without any single cut. Directed by Nikkhil Advani, ‘Vedaa’, which was initially scheduled for release on July 12, will now be released on August 15.
A Pinkvilla report stated: “'Vedaa' has been certified U/A by the revising committee of the Central Board of Film Certification without a single cut. The makers have been advised to put a disclaimer at the beginning and the entire content has got a clean chit from the certification body. The team of 'Vedaa' is very happy with the smooth process and appreciates the fact that the CBFC team could relate to the important issue they are trying to address through the film.”
It further mentioned, “Vedaa is on track now for an August 15, 2024 release as all the hurdles are now off their way. The makers will extensively promote the film over 15 days and are confident to grab the attention of the audience with their strong content and pre-release assets”.
The producers of 'Vedaa', including John Abraham Entertainment, Zee Studios, and Emmay Entertainment, released a statement last month informing fans that despite their best efforts, they have not yet received clearance and certification from the CBFC in India. They stated that they followed all protocols by applying for a certificate within the prescribed eight weeks before the planned release.
The film also features Tamannaah Bhatia, Abhishek Banerjee, Ashish Vidyarthi, and Kshitij Chauhan in pivotal roles. It will clash with Rajkummar Rao-Shraddha Kapoor's 'Stree 2' and Akshay Kumar's 'Khel Khel Mein' on August 15.
