Dhadak 2, starring Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri, is set to release this year. The film was recently screened for the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). The censor board has reportedly asked the makers to follow a series of changes and alterations for a smooth release. This also includes a ‘urinating scene’ that features the lead actor. 

CBFC suggests changes in Dhadak 2


According to a report by The Hindu, Dhadak 2 has been granted ‘U/A 16+’ certification. A Hindi dialogue which states, “3,000 years of backlog will not be cleared in just 70 years,” has been changed to “The backlog of age-old discrimination will not be cleared in just 70 years.” A 5-second shot of an actor urinating on Nilesh (Chaturvedi) was censored. Besides that, the use of casteist slurs like “cha***” and “bha***” have also been muted and replaced with “junglee”. A 3-minute scene featuring the lead actor’s father getting humiliated was also trimmed. Besides that, a scene involving violence against a woman was cut to a black screen.

More about Dhadak 2 

Directed by the proficient Shazia Iqbal, Dhadak 2 explores barriers of class, caste, and status stitched in the minds of societies, underscoring a narrative of love that can never be fulfilled—or can it? The film follows Siddhant's character as he navigates a love story that breaks through societal expectations and barriers. 

At an earlier event, Siddhant said, “We have made a really strong and rooted film. Usually, I have been approached for urban roles, but I come from Ballia, a small town in UP, and this is my first time exploring such a genre.”

Dhadak 2 is an official remake of the Tamil film Pariyerum Perumal (2018). The film was initially planned for a November 2024 release, but it got delayed. It is produced by Zee Studios, Dharma Productions, and Cloud 9 Pictures, and also stars Ashutosh Rana, Kharaj Mukherjee, and Aditya Kumar. 

Dhadak 2 is a spiritual sequel to the popular film Dhadak, featuring Janhvi Kapoor and Ishan Khatter, which was released in 2018. It was the Hindi remake of the  Marathi film Sairat.
