Meanwhile, ahead of its release, Sara Ali Khan and Ayushmann Khurrana’s Udta Teer has been denied permission for theatrical release in Nepal. According to Nepal-based news website Onlinekhabar, the ministry informed the film’s distributor, National Cine Group, of the decision through an official letter. The letter stated that Nepal’s Central Film Censor Board found the film’s content to be in violation of the restrictions outlined under Section 8(3) of the National Cinema (Production, Exhibition and Distribution) Act, 2026. As a result, Udta Teer will not be released in Nepal.

Udta Teer follows Bilal (Ayushmann Khurrana), a Pakistani spy who loses his memory after a blast and starts to think of himself as an Indian Counter-Terrorism Squad officer. Sara Ali Khan plays the role of another officer who doesn’t know about his real identity. Sara and Ayushmann are reuniting in Udta Teer after featuring together in the 2026 romantic comedy Pati Patni Aur Woh Do.

Produced by Dharma Productions and Sikhya Entertainment, Udta Teer also stars Rahul Bose, Ram Kapoor, Suhail Nayyar, Gulshan Grover, Raghubir Yadav and Supriya Pilgaonkar. The movie was initially scheduled to hit theatres on October 9, but the makers postponed it to get a cleaner release window.

Udta Teer early review: 'Mukul Dev is superb; Sara Ali Khan is fine'

@SAMTHEBESTEST_ also added in his Udta Teer review, "There is a solid backup to the story, every situation makes sense and creates hysterical moments that are hilarious. It's "comedy of errors" and "situational comedy" done right after a long time in Bollywood. Mukul Dev is superb, Suhail Nayyar gets a meaty role and our ladies Sara Ali Khan, Smita Tambe are fine. Ram Kapoor Brijendra Kala, Gulshan Grover add more delightful moments to the film.

Ayushmann Khurrana's Udta Teer has received a positive review from @SAMTHEBESTEST_, who rated the film 4/5 stars and wrote, "Udta Teer Review: A Masaledaar Patriotic Comedy with Twists after Twists! Udta Teer surprises with its twisty narrative that doesn't stop being humourous and funny throughout the runtime. We have seen Deshbhakti films, but nothing like this before! Ayushmann Khurrana is back in the content game as this one adds another unique film in his filmography. The major show stealer is Rahul Bose – you have never seen him like this and will never see doing something as funny as this in future."
