In recent years, several Hindi films, including Dhurandhar, Border 2, Fighter, Sky Force, Article 370 and Tiger 3, have been denied a release in certain Middle Eastern markets. However, the recently released Ayushmann Khurrana-Sara Ali Khan starrer Udta Teer faced a roadblock closer to home, in the neighbouring country of Nepal. Bollywood Hungama was the first to break the news that the spy comedy was not granted permission for release in Nepal. Bollywood Hungama exclusively spoke to Akash A Kaushik about it.
When asked about the reason behind the film's no-release in Nepal, Akash A Kaushik said, “I don’t know. I was very sad because my sister studied in Nepal. I have visited Pokhara many times, and I just love that country a lot. Hence, I was quite shocked. We have made such a good film, and I wanted the people of Nepal to enjoy it as well. We have such great relations with Nepal. Hence, it was very disheartening for me to know that they banned our film. That never happens. I can understand Pakistan not showing our film! But why would Nepal do so? I fail to understand that.”
He added, “I have friends in Nepal who told me, ‘Humein dekhni hai picture. Itna accha trailer hai’. Hence, it pains me a lot. I still hope they can lift the ban so that the people of Nepal can enjoy Udta Teer.”
Udta Teer 2 on the cards?
Udta Teer is a film that has the potential for a sequel. Can the audience expect Udta Teer 2? Akash A Kaushik replied, “A lot of people have been asking me whether I have thought of making a sequel (laughs). But honestly, I have not thought about it because aap kabhi woh soch ke kahaani nahin likhte. If I get a worthy idea which can be made as Udta Teer 2, most definitely, we’ll make it. As of now, there are no plans to make a sequel.”
The final scene involving Sara Ali Khan is hilarious, but it also makes one wonder: was she bluffing or telling the truth? Akash laughed and explained the reason behind the scene, “We need to tease the audience. That adds to the fun!”
