NEW DELHI: Denying the reports of Central Board Of Film Certification’s (CBFC) ban on Raveena Tandon starrer ‘Maatr,’ CEO Anurag Shrivastava said that the examination committee is still in process and the result will be conveyed in a day or two.

“The screening of the movie ‘Maatr’ for CBFC was done yesterday evening and at the moment there is no screening of ‘Maatr’ again. Ban on the movie is false, as the examination committee is still in process and the result will be conveyed in a day or two,” he said.

For the unversed, reports were doing the rounds that ‘Maatr’ has been banned by the CBFC and the reason behind this alleged ban was the film’s violent rape scenes.

Ashtar Sayed directed ‘Maatr’ is an upcoming Indian revenge thriller, written by Michael Pellico and slated to release it on April 21, 2017.
