Nikkhil Advani’s much-awaited action drama Vedaa has found itself in a pool of helplessness. Starring John Abraham, Sharvari, Tamannaah Bhatia, and Abhishek Banerjee in key roles, the movie is yet to receive a clearance from CBFC. This comes at a time when the release date is inching closer. The move has compelled the makers to issue an official statement on the same and amplify their emotions.
Vedaa makers issue statement over non-clearance from CBFC
The producer’s statement started by noting that despite their best efforts, they haven’t yet received a clearance and certification from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). They further revealed following all protocols and applying for Vedaa’s certification good eight weeks before the release and the movie was indeed screened on June 25 for CBFC.
However, they were soon told to send Vedaa to the revising committee without explanation regarding any concerns or objections by them. “Since then, we have waited patiently for a revising committee to be constituted, impressed on all respected and honorable office bearers, and repeatedly daily documented our appeal for certification, consideration, or even an explanation,” the note read further.
The producers of Vedaa are however hopeful that despite the delay, their faith in the system will ensure CBFC’s smooth obligation to them rightfully. In their public appeal, the makers added, “It is our earnest request and wish that these words reach those who are able to help us resolve and dissipate this impasse and have our film certified.”

The makers also mentioned that August 15 is a special date that they find fortunate to bring Vedaa on and are hopeful that it’ll be dearly loved by fans. For the unversed, John Abraham and Nikkhil Advani have earlier collaborated on several films including Satyameva Jayate and Batla House which also released on the same date.
Vedaa is a powerful, out-and-out entertaining film, inspired by current events and was wrapped up in December 2023 only. Bankrolled by Zee Studios, Emmay Entertainment, and JA Entertainment, Vedaa was earlier scheduled to release on July 12 and is now eyeing a release on August 15.
