Diljit Dosanjh's 'Satluj' Pulled From ZEE5 India Catalogue Post-Premiere: No Explanation Given

Diljit Dosanjh's new film, 'Satluj', which is inspired by human rights activist Jaswant Singh Khalra, was controversially removed from ZEE5 India's catalogue within 48 hours of its July 3 premiere. While ZEE5 confirmed the withdrawal via Instagram, the streaming platform offered no specific reason for its decision, leaving Indian audiences without access to the film. This swift action has sparked considerable speculation, especially given the movie's prominent star and sensitive biographical subject matter. Interestingly, the film remains available for international viewers on ZEE5 Global, highlighting a significant divergence in its distribution within and outside India. The unexpected removal of 'Satluj' has garnered significant attention, prompting questions about censorship, platform policies, and the implications for Indian cinema.
