Here’s Why Triptii Dimri, Siddhant Chaturvedi’s Dhadak 2 Is Facing CBFC Issues; Film’s Release Date Revealed

Dhadak 2 starring Triptii Dimri and Siddhant Chaturvedi’s announcement was met with a lot of excitement by the fans. The film was initially said to be released in November 2024, but was postponed to 2025. Recent reports suggest that the film is facing difficulties in securing CBFC certification due to its caste-related themes. If the film eventually gets a holi release, it will be competing with John Abraham’s The Diplomat.

Dhadak 2 Facing CBFC Hurdles

T-Series had previously announced that John Abraham’s The Diplomat was to be set for March 7 which got moved to March 14. If Dhadak 2 also released that time, the two films will be facing competition. Promotions for the film are yet to begin. According to a Bollywood Hungama source, the film delves into caste-issues. Although the CBFC Examining Committee praised the filmmakers for taking on such a difficult subject, the film’s certification is presently being reviewed, and possible scene edits are being considered because of its delicate subject matter.

According to a trade expert who spoke to the portal, Dhadak 2‘s creators are giving finishing the censorship process first priority before starting any marketing. They don’t want to declare a release date only to have it delayed because of certification problems. The movie may still be released on March 14 if the CBFC gives its approval in time; if not, it may be delayed. Within the following five to ten days, a final decision is anticipated.
