Anupam Kher dedicates ‘Vijay 69’ to mother’s inspiring spirit
Anupam Kher’s latest film, 'Vijay 69', is a heartfelt tribute to his mother’s resilience and life lessons, premiering on Netflix November 8.
The makers of Aiyaary on Tuesday received a green signal for release from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). It will now hit the screens on February 16.
The movie was due to have a clash with Pad Man on Friday.
According to a statement issued on behalf of the makers, after the CBFC reviewed the film, a screening of Aiyaary was held for the Ministry of Defence last week on the censor board’s instruction.
