The year 2019 has just begun and Bollywood is looking for fresh ideas and original content. Well, ‘Cheat India’ is exactly a kind of film what viewers now demands. Recently, producer Bhushan Kumar and Emraan Hashmi came together to make the announcement that their film ‘Cheat India’ will release on January 18, exactly a week before it was scheduled to release.

However, the CBFC expressed its concerns about the title ‘Cheat India’ and therefore makers have decided to give it a new title ‘Why Cheat India’. In a press release, T-Series Films said, “The CBFC had concerns about the title Cheat India. We had an extensive conversation with the Examining Committee and Revising Committee regarding the proposed change as the film has been in public domain for a year, and more importantly, because the theatrical teaser, trailer and television promos had already been certified with the original title.”

“This would lead to dual communication a week before the release. The duress of lack of time left us with no choice but to mutually agree to the new title, Why Cheat India,” it added.

Notably, the Emraan Hashmi-starrer film sheds light on the corruption prevailing in the country’s education system. In the Soumik Sen directorial, Emraan Hashmi will be seen as the kingpin of an admissions racket that involves getting brilliant students to write engineering and management entrance exams for other candidates in exchange for money.
