The movie narrates a fictional story about unearthing of an ancient temple and the nexus between a section of the media and political parties, Mukhopadhyay said on Tuesday.

“We wanted to commercially release the film on July 11, and submitted it to the Censor Board of Film Certification (CBFC) office here in June. The Board refused to give the nod, objecting to a few scenes and recommended sending it to the CBFC Revising Committee,” he stated.

The 15-member CBFC Revising Committee in Mumbai also voiced apprehension after watching the film on June 22 and verbally flagged issues about some scenes, which they think may not look appropriate to a section of the audience and hurt their sensibilities, the director said.
