In February 2013, Central Board of Film Certification refused to pass the film. The letter of denial cited excessive use of abusive language, sexuality, frivolous approach in portraying of social movements and negative portrayal of the character Joseph Stalin.Mukhopadhyay, the director of the film, was angry that the film was blocked by the censor board and he said in an interview It is frightening because it is interference of an artists work and it is happening again and again in West Bengal. It is not the first time. There was Ambikesh Mahapatra cartoon case, there was the segregation of newspapers and TV channels as friendly and not friendly, there was the student who was called a Maoist because she asked a question. All these small events are symptomatic of a mindset of what I will say are fascist tendencies. ........
