He said, "The experience was brilliant because we believed in the subject and the subject was close to us.""Our intention is to expose terrorism -- all those forces which are supporting terrorism, which are sowing a seed of terrorism in humankind and the innocents who are getting targeted," he added."This has nothing to do with Islam and the Quran. We are talking about terrorist organisations," he concluded.When asked about the criticism he encountered, Pandit said, "We want people to criticize it, but they should criticize it logically and not just say that this is a propaganda film."National Award-winning director Sanjay Puran Singh Chauhan was also there and talked exclusively to ANI. He said, "We are organising a special screening in JNU because we want to know students' perspectives and learn from that."On criticism, Sanjay said, "People are giving their opinion without watching it which is hurtful. We want people to watch the film first."On Censor Board certification, he said, "They (the Censor Board) have asked us to remove some scenes and words from the trailer, but it is not possible for now. So, we decided to release the film on social media."The Central Board of Film Certification had rejected a censor certificate for the trailer for National Award-winning director Sanjay Puran Singh Chauhan's film '72 Hoorain.'The trailer provides a dramatic insight into a riveting narrative of what happens in the dark world of terrorism and the intense brainwashing of terrorists.Helmed by two-time National Award winner Sanjay Puran Singh Chauhan, it is slated to release on July 7. The film is produced by Gulab Singh TanwarKiran Dagar, and Anirudh Tanwar and is co-produced by Ashoke Pandit.

I am confident that this will also be the case with our movie, which will be released on July 7."The film delves into the gruesome reality of terrorist camps. It came into the limelight after Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) denied a censor certificate to the film '72 Hoorain' trailer. This ruling has stirred concerns about creative freedom and censorship in the film business.During a press conference held earlier, Ashoke Pandit told the media, "They (the Censor board) have asked us to remove some scenes and words from the trailer, but they have no objection to keeping those scenes in the film. We are questioning this contradiction. This film is not against any religion and is dealing with terrorism."He further shared that they plan to show the film at various educational institutions. "We feel the need to screen this movie at various educational institutions, and we are currently doing so at a number of other institutions, including Jadavpur University and other colleges and institutions because we felt the need to show this film to the youngsters which is the need of the hour.
