Sunny Deol and Sakshi Tanwar-starrer Mohalla Assi, which was not getting approval for its release from the CBFC for the last two years, has finally been cleared by the Delhi High Court.

The film, which is based on Kashinath Singh’s novel, Kashi Ka Assi, was objected to by the CBFC due to its abusive and explicit content, which they believe will hurt various communities and their sentiments.

The director of the film, Chandraprakash Dwivedi, who fought for over two years for its release, says that filmmakers need to be prepared for a legal battle if they want to certify their films.
