Ayushmann Khurrana and Sara Ali Khan’s upcoming film Udta Teer is facing roadblocks ahead of its release in Nepal. Amid the buzz created by its trailer, the country’s Ministry of Communications and Information Technology refused to grant it permission for exhibition, and as a result, the film will not be screened publicly in Nepal for now. The decision comes after Nepal’s Central Film Censor Board reviewed the film and found it in violation of a provision of the country’s cinema law. 

Udta Teer denied permission in Nepal

According to India Today, the ministry’s Audio-Visual and Broadcasting Division issued a letter in which the Central Film Censor Board examined the film on Ashwin 19, 2083, according to the Nepali calendar. During the review, the board concluded that the film’s production violated Section 8(3) of the National Cinema (Production, Exhibition and Distribution) Act, 2026. Based on its findings, the ministry has decided not to grant permission for the film’s public screening in the country.
