Doctor G becomes Ayushmann Khurrana's first A-rated film due to its bold yet sensitive content

Ayushmann Khurrana, Shefali Shah and Rakul Preet Singh's Doctor G will release in theatres on October 14. Directed by Anubhuti Kashyap, the film revolves around the journey of an aspiring orthopaedic surgeon who instead gets into the gynaecology department, becoming the only male in a woman-dominated department.  

Now, with less than a week left for its release, Doctor G receives an A certificate from the Censor Board of Film Certification (CBFC). This made it Ayushmann's first A-rated film. The makers of Doctor G took a conscious call to not alter the film and take the ‘A’ certification in the interest of providing a film that is high on humour and in a narrative that is meant to be watched in its truest form.

Amrita Pandey, CEO Junglee Pictures, said, "The movie is bold, high on entertainment yet subtly breaks stereotypes as one might expect from a true Ayushmann Khurrana film. Despite not having any explicit content, it is a movie for young adults who are exposed to bold yet sensitive and hilarious content and can of course watch it with their families. We are happy there were no cuts suggested and we are able to present the film as is in the theatres, also being under 2 hours, Doctor G will have a refreshing and engaging appeal.”

Anubhuti shared, "Midst all the action, thriller and fantasy-led movies that have released recently, Doctor G is a fun comedy-drama that is clutter-breaking and will be a refreshing watch for the audience. The trailer has been received so well and that is just a glimpse of the comedy and entertainment that’s in store during the film. I am glad the audience will get to watch the film in its entirety that will stay with them for a long time."
 
Written by Sumit Saxena, Saurabh Bharat, Vishal Wagh and Anubhuti, Doctor G is set to release in theatres on October 14.
