Salman Khan Films denies CBFC certification delay reports

The production company for Salman Khan's upcoming war film has categorically denied reports that the project is facing certification delays, clarifying that the movie has not yet been submitted for review. On Saturday, July 4, Salman Khan Films issued a statement dismissing widespread speculation that "Maatrubhumi May War Rest In Peace" had encountered issues with India's Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC).

The statement directly addressed claims that the CBFC had withheld a clearance certificate, calling such reports "false" and "entirely baseless." It confirmed that the film has not been submitted to the censor board for certification and therefore any discussion of a delay in that process is premature. The production house urged media outlets and the public not to circulate unverified information and stated that all official updates will come through its authorized channels.

This clarification follows several days of reports suggesting the film might miss a potential August release window, specifically around the Independence Day weekend, due to alleged unresolved certification troubles. The makers have not announced a formal release date.
