John Abraham's upcoming film, Vedaa, is facing an unexpected hurdle. The filmmakers, deeply dedicated to their project, are still awaiting clearance from the Censor Board of Film Certification (CBFC). Director Nikkhil Advani, a passionate advocate for the film, shared this news on Instagram and urged the authorities to address the delay.
Vedaa's producers, determined to see their project through, have expressed their concerns about the situation. They stated that despite their proactive efforts, the film has not yet received the necessary certification from the CBFC. They submitted the film for review well before the required eight weeks before its release date. The film was screened by the CBFC on June 25. However, instead of receiving feedback or a decision, the makers were informed that the film was being sent to a revising committee.
The statement read, "We applied for a certificate well before the eight weeks deadline. After the screening on June 25, we were moved to a revising committee review without knowing the committee's concerns or objections. We have been waiting patiently for the committee to be formed and have documented our appeals daily. Despite this delay, we believe in the system and are confident the CBFC will resolve this issue."

They believe Vedaa is a powerful and entertaining film inspired by current events. They are eager for the film to reach its audience and are making every effort to ensure its timely release.
Vedaa also stars Abhishek Banerjee, Sharvari Wagh, and Tamannaah Bhatia. The film is set to be released on August 15, 2024. This release date is significant because it coincides with the release of Rajkummar Rao and Tamannaah Bhatia's film, Stree 2. The overlap in release dates means that both films will face a box office clash.
The delay in certification is a major concern for the Vedaa team. They are waiting for the CBFC to resolve the issue so that they can stick to their planned release schedule.
