The movie was slated to air on Sunday. However, the film authority objected to its supposedly "sensitive storyline" and dubbed it "unsuitable" for audiences below 18.

“The whole subject is controversial, and it’s unsuitable to be viewed by children. It talks about a man who wants a sex change and has a genital operation to become a woman. The subject is sensitive and how do you edit a subject like that?” Mumbai Mirror quoteda Censor Board member as saying.
The Danish Girlwon an Oscar for Alicia Vikander, who plays Redmayne's wife, in the Best Supporting Actress category last year.
Indians took to social media to express their disappointment.
