Rajkummar Rao and Wamiqa Gabbi Team Up in New Film ‘Bhool Chuk’

Bhool Chuk Maaf, featuring acclaimed actors Rajkummar Rao and Wamiqa Gabbi, is set to hit theaters this Friday, May 9. The film has successfully passed the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) process without any cuts, a significant achievement for its creators. With a runtime of 121 minutes, the film has been awarded a U/A 13+ certificate, indicating it is suitable for viewers aged 13 and above.
Film Certification Process Completed
The CBFC granted approval to Bhool Chuk Maaf on April 29, confirming that the film contains no objectionable content requiring edits. A source close to the production revealed that the Examining Committee (EC) found no need to alter any dialogue or scenes. This is particularly noteworthy given recent instances where films faced cuts for seemingly minor issues. For example, in the film Raid 2, a character’s title was changed, and in Thunderbolts, a word was muted. However, Bhool Chuk Maaf has emerged unscathed from this scrutiny, receiving a clean bill of health from the certification board.
The film’s U/A 13+ rating is part of a new classification system introduced in November 2024, which also includes U/A 7+ and U/A 16+ ratings. This rating system aims to provide clearer guidance for audiences regarding age-appropriate content. Bhool Chuk Maaf joins a list of recent films, including Sikandar and Crazxy, that have also received the U/A 13+ designation.
Anticipation Builds for Release
As the release date approaches, excitement is building among fans and industry insiders alike. Bollywood Hungama has been closely following the film’s journey, previously reporting that its teaser would be attached to the film Chhaava. The film was initially scheduled to clash with Sunny Deol’s Jaat on April 10 but was later postponed to its current release date of May 9. This strategic move allows for greater visibility and anticipation among audiences.
In addition to the film’s teaser, it has been confirmed that the teaser for Param Sundari, the next project from Maddock Films following Bhool Chuk Maaf, will also be included in the film’s prints. This adds another layer of excitement for viewers eager to see whatโs next from the production house.
