KD: The Devil has been attracting controversy one after the other ever since its announcement. After the vulgar song row surrounding Nora Fatehi and Sanjay Dutt`s song Sarke Chunar, the trailer of the film has now been taken down over its “uncertified content.” The makers issued a statement confirming that it has been taken down and a new updated trailer will be shared soon.
KVN Productions Issues Statement
In an official statement shared on social media, KVN Productions revealed the reason behind the move. The statement read, “The trailer of KD: The Devil, recently released on YouTube, inadvertently included certain uncertified content during the certification process.”
The production house stated that a corrected version of the trailer will be released soon. “We have therefore taken down the trailer and will be uploading a revised version shortly, in compliance with the certification guidelines,” it added. Expressing regret over the situation, the team further added, “We sincerely regret this oversight and remain fully committed to adhering to all certification norms.”
About the Sarke Chunar controversy
Earlier, the song Sarke Chunar Teri Sarke from the upcoming film KD: The Devil had been embroiled in controversy, with many objecting to its lyrics and visuals. The All India Cine Workers Association (AICWA), Kangana Ranaut, and Armaan Malik criticised the song, starring Nora Fatehi, for its objectionable lyrics.
According to ANI, an advocate approached the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) seeking an immediate ban and removal of the song, alleging that its lyrics and visuals in the video are obscene and harmful, particularly to minors. Additionally, a criminal complaint has also been filed with the Delhi Police Cyber Cell regarding the song.
The issue even escalated to the National Commission for Women (NCW), which summoned key individuals associated with the track.
Directed by Prem, the film is a large-scale action entertainer starring Kannada actor Dhruva Sarja. The cast also features Shilpa Shetty, V. Ravichandran, Ramesh Aravind, Reeshma Nanaiah and Nora Fatehi, with Sanjay Dutt playing a key role. Amid the ongoing controversies and troubles, KD: The Devil is scheduled to hit theatres on April 30, 2026.
