Overview
- CBFC cleared the film on November 17 with an Adult rating after deleting a 9‑second animal visual and trimming 30 seconds of close-up shots, totaling 39 seconds of visual cuts.
- The board also required dialogue changes, replacing words such as “behen” and “item” and fictionalizing an alcohol brand; the censor certificate lists a 144.17‑minute runtime.
- A release‑day breakdown reports additional tweaks, including renaming a character to Rose‑mary Carlow and toning down an Aftab Shivdasani gag.
- The fourth entry in the Masti franchise, directed by Milap Zaveri and led by Riteish Deshmukh, Vivek Oberoi and Aftab Shivdasani, opened today after low advance sales of about 5,700 tickets in major chains and social posts noting some canceled shows in Mumbai.
- Early reception is split toward negative in mainstream reviews (Hindustan Times, Free Press Journal) with a more favorable 3‑star take from Koimoi, and industry trackers pegged opening‑day earnings near Rs 64 lakh in preliminary estimates.
