The film was released in theaters in India on 11 November 2016. The film was passed with a UA certificate by the CBFC with almost no cuts. On 8 November, three days before the film's release, Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced that the country's two currencies – 500 and 1000 – would be demonetized from the next day onwards as a means to counter fake currency and exterminate black money and corruption. This would mean that it would not be possible for patrons to purchase tickets from box office using the old notes until Thursday, 10 November, when new 500 and 2000 notes will be issued. Ticket buyers would also sway away from buying tickets due to limited sources of money and from the other available option of purchasing tickets, via online, since a 'convenience fee' is charged for such method. In order to curb this problem, the film partnered with theater chain PVR Cinemas where ticket buyers will be able to evade paying convenience fees in the company's website and app respectively.
