Diljit Dosanjh's latest film, Satluj, dropped on ZEE5 last Friday but vanished from the platform within two days.
The movie, based on activist Jaswant Singh Khalra's life, was released uncut online after the CBFC blocked its theatrical release over 127 suggested edits.

The takedown sparked a wave of criticism and questions about transparency. Comedian Kunal Kamra called out the CBFC for double standards in handling political films and wrote to chairperson Prasoon Joshi asking for answers.
Dosanjh even warned fans during an Instagram Live that the film might disappear soon, while producer Ronnie Screwvala pointed to government interference, raising fresh concerns about creative freedom in India's film industry.
