 The film faced troubles ever since the launch of the first look posters revealing the title. The Indian Medical Association (IMA), along with the Indian Psychiatric Society (IPS) and Deepika Padukone’s The Live Love Laugh Foundation, wrote letters to the film’s makers, CBFC chief Prasoon Joshi, the Prime Minister’s office and former Information and Broadcasting Minister Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore seeking withdrawal of the teasers and a revision of the title.

 

According to reports, Kangana Ranaut recently met members of the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) and later told the media that she is ready to make necessary changes in her upcoming film, Mental Hai Kya. The latest development suggest that the makers have opted for the title, Judgemental Hai Kya.

The film produced by Ekta Kapoor's Balaji Motion Pictures also stars Amyra Dastur and Vikrant Massey in supporting roles.
