Directed by Honey Trehan, the film was earlier titled Punjab 95 and faced a long battle with the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). The streamer added that they firmly stand by Satluj and the vision behind it. “We believe powerful storytelling has the ability to inspire, endure and leave a lasting impact. We remain committed to championing authentic and meaningful narratives.” They captioned the post on social media by saying, “Satluj may have paused. But the conversation it started hasn’t. Thank you for the incredible love. We hope to bring it back soon.” ZEE5 did not disclose the exact reason for the film’s removal. The film traces the journey of human rights activist Jaswant Singh Khalra, an erstwhile bank manager who exposed mass disappearances and extra-judicial killings in Punjab during the militancy era.
