Sunny Deol’s long-delayed film Mohalla Assi cleared for release

Starring Sunny Deol, Sakshi Tanwar and Ravi Kishan in lead roles, the much-delayed controversial film Mohalla Assi has been cleared for its theatrical release.

Based on Kashinath Singh’s popular Hindi Novel, Kashi Ka Assi, the film sheds light on the cultural degradation in the holy city of Banaras.


The film was initially scheduled to release in 2015, but a Delhi court on June 30, 2015, stalled its release saying it hurt religious sentiments.

However, setting aside the order of Central Board of Film Certification, which had refused to certify the film, the Delhi High Court has now directed the CBFC to award an 'A' certificate to the movie within a week, quashing 9 out the 10 proposed modifications.

It is expected that the makers will announce a new release date soon.
