Yogi Adityanath Film Faces Certification Denial, Makers Approach Court
A movie about Yogi Adityanath, called 'Ajey,' is facing issues with getting approved.
The people making the movie went to court because the people in charge of deciding if a movie can be shown (the CBFC) said no without even watching it.
The movie is based on a book.
The court is looking into the matter and has asked the CBFC to explain why they rejected the film.
The movie is set to come out soon.
The film 'Ajey: The Untold Story of a Yogi' is purportedly based on the life of Yogi Adityanath.
The Bombay High Court is hearing a plea from the filmmakers regarding the CBFC's denial of certification.
The CBFC rejected applications for certification without viewing the film, its trailer, or songs.
The film is inspired by the book 'The Monk Who Became Chief Minister'.
The film is slated for release on August 1st.
