Shahid Kapoor and Kriti Sanon’s highly-anticipated film, ‘Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya,’ is all set to release in theatres on February 9. As fans excitedly wait to watch Shahid and Kriti’s onscreen chemistry, the film went through a censorship check and the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) decided to cut an intimate scene.
Other than the intimate scenes, the censor board also asked the makers to change the word ‘Daru’ to ‘Drink’ in the second half of the film.

About Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya
The film stars Shahid Kapoor and Kriti Sanon in lead roles. The movie explores an impossible love story between a human and a robot. In the film, Shahid plays a robot scientist who develops feelings and finally marries Kriti’s character, Sifra, a highly intelligent female robot.
The film is written and directed by Amit Joshi and Aradhana Sah. Dinesh Vijan, Jyoti Deshpande, and Laxman Utekar have produced it. Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya will be out in theatres on February 9. Apart from Shahid and Kriti, the film also features Dimple Kapadia and Dharmendra in key roles.
Shahid Kapoor and Kriti Sanon are working for the first time together in the romantic comedy, Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya. Ahead of the film’s release, Bollywood Hungama reported that CBFC has asked the makers to remove some scenes from the film. These cuts have, in turn, reduced the film’s run-time.
Demand of Censor Boards
The censor board has reportedly asked the team to trim around nine seconds from an intimate scene, hence shortening its original length from 36 seconds to 27 seconds. Apart from that, the board has directed the makers to include the anti-smoking static message in the film and make it more readable.
Other than this, the CBFC has also ordered the makers to replace the word ‘daru’ with ‘drink’ in a scene. The film has received a U/A certificate and has a run-time of 143.15 minutes (2 hours, 23 minutes, and 15 seconds).
Shahid on Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya
While speaking to WION, Kapoor talked about the possibilities of Artificial Intelligence taking over the world. “In the last year or so, when we made this film, suddenly, a lot of talk around Chat GPT started, and AI became very very common. And, now, every day, we see a lot of news articles on AI. So one or two years ago, we started this bravely, thinking that people would understand it by watching it.
However, while we were making the movie, the talk about it had already started. So from this, we only get a feeling that it may enter our lives in a while, but perhaps it will enter our lives sooner than we have thought because it’s less than a year since it all started and we are already talking about it so much, so it’s relevant and it’s possibly in the near future.”
Predictions on Earnings
According to reports, ‘Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya’ has already sold 43,338 tickets for 7,185 shows in advance booking. Additionally, the sci-fi romantic-comedy has amassed a nationwide gross collection of ₹93.95 lakhs.
The film is expected to receive a positive response on its first day. However, it’s important to note that these figures are early estimates, and ticket sales are expected to increase throughout the day. Releasing during the Valentine’s Week, this solo Hindi release featuring Shahid Kapoor, might attract a significant audience, potentially competing with Hollywood superhero film ‘Madame Web.’
Shahid’s Film To Surpass SRK’s ‘Dunki’ And Hrithik’s ‘Fighter’
Furthermore, ‘Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya’ is anticipated to make a mark internationally, possibly surpassing the worldwide collections of Shah Rukh Khan’s ‘Dunki’ and Hrithik Roshan’s ‘Fighter’. The film is also expected to perform well in Australia and New Zealand.
Directed by Amit Joshi, ‘Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya’ stars Shahid Kapoor and Kriti Sanon in lead roles, with notable performances from Dharmendra, Dimple Kapadia, and Rakesh Bedi.
As fans eagerly await the release of this unique romantic-comedy, all eyes are set on its box office performance, which promises to be nothing short of impressive.
