The movie, based on the life of Jaswant Singh Khalra, had generated significant attention last year when it faced difficulties with the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). The board recommended a series of cuts ranging from 85 to 120, with one of the major suggestions being the removal of Khalra’s name from the film. Additionally, the CBFC raised concerns over the title Punjab ’95, which references the year Khalra disappeared. The activist went missing in September 1995, and a decade later, six Punjab police officers were convicted for his murder.
