Panjab '95 Title Change And Cuts

Originally titled Ghalughara following the Ghalughara massacre, Punjab '95 was submitted to the Central Board of Film Certification in 2022. The CBFC, however, objected to the title and removed 120 parts of the movie. The CBFC eventually agreed to the cuts after the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC), the highest Sikh religious organisation, stepped in, but requested that the title be altered.

The movie has been enmeshed in controversy eversince it was submitted for CBFC certification over three years ago.
