Dhadak 2 has finally been cleared by CBFC but only after as many as 16 modifications.
There is a dialogue in the film that says '3,000 years of backlog will not be cleared in just 70 years.' It has been modified to 'The backlog of age-old discrimination will not be cleared in just 70 years.'
Another dialogue said, 'Nilesh ye kalam dekh rahe ho…., Raaj kar rahe hain.' This has been modified to 'Yeh chota sa dhakkan puri qalam ka thoda sa hissa hai aur baki ke hai hum phir bhi hamare sir per baithe hua hai kyu.'
A line saying, 'Dharam ka kaam hai,' ('this is religious work'), was replaced with 'Punya ka kaam hai' ('this is [work toward] a good deed').
A poem by Om Prakash Valmiki that happened to be used in the film has been reportedly replaced or altered. No confirmation about the same has been made yet.

Radhika Apte says the film industry isn't ‘conducive' to new mothers: ‘The time for which we don't see the child…'
After Deepika Padukone and Saif Ali Khan, Radhika Apte is the latest actor to bat for more family time. Talking to IE, she admitted that the film industry isn't really 'conducive' to new mothers like her and admitted she doesn't know how to navigate her work now. (Also Read: After Deepika Padukone, Saif Ali Khan also champions family time for actors: 'I hate coming home and seeing...') When asked if the film industry is conducive to new mothers like her, Radhika said, 'I don't think they are. I don't know how I'm going to navigate that going ahead.' This comes after reports of Deepika recently turning down Sandeep Reddy Vanga's Prabhas-starrer Spirit after her requests for an 8-hour workday and a better remuneration package weren't met. Ajay Devgn and Kajol publicly supported her, while Saif also advocated prioritising family time. Radhika claimed that it was difficult to balance her work and new motherhood, stating, 'It's really difficult to work in our film industry, given the number of hours and how we film generally, and the time for which we don't get to see the child. So I guess I'll just have to figure it out now.' The actor has been splitting her time between Mumbai and London for a while now, making it even more difficult. Radhika, who gave birth to a baby girl in December last year, opened up to ANI recently about the emotional highs and lows she has experienced. She said, 'I was very prepared for postpartum, actually. And I had also made sure that my friends and family were aware that if I went into postpartum depression, they needed to support me. To my own surprise, I was just purely elated when I had a child. And fortunately, I didn't suffer from severe depression at any point.' She is married to musician Benedict Taylor.

Amid Deepika Padukone, Sandeep Reddy Vanga row, Radhika Apte admits industry is not conducive to new mom needs: ‘It's really difficult...'
The news of Deepika Padukone's exit from Sandeep Reddy Vanga's Spirit started a discourse in the industry after it was claimed that her 'unprofessional demands' led to her ouster. After Aja Devgn came to the actress' support, Radhika Apte, who is also a new mother, claimed that the industry is not conducive to the needs of a new mother. The Lust Stories actress announced her pregnancy last year as she flaunted her baby bump on the red carpet of the BAFTA Awards. She was there as her British film, Sister Midnight, was nominated in the Outstanding Debut by a British Writer, Director or Producer category. She welcomed a baby girl in December 2024 with her husband, Benedict Taylor. In a recent interview with the Indian Express' SCREEN, Apte was asked if the film industry is encouraging towards the needs of new mothers. In response to this, the actress shared her concern, expressing, 'I don't think they are. I don't know how I'm going to navigate that going ahead.' She further explained her reason, noting that an actor rarely gets the time to see their child, considering long shoot hours. 'It's really difficult to work in our film industry, given the number of hours and how we film generally, and the time for which we don't get to see the child. So I guess I'll just have to figure it out now,' she further added. Notably, this comes days after a Bollywood Hungama report claimed that Deepika Padukone was ousted from Sandeep Reddy Vanga 's Spirit after she demanded changes in her contract through her agency. It was reported that the actress refused to shoot for more than 6 hours a day. The report also claimed that the actress demanded extra pay for every single day if the shoot extended beyond 100 days. Ajay Devgn, on the other hand, during the trailer launch of Maa, also reacted to the row and assured that most of the "honest filmmakers" don't have any problem with these things. He also claimed that most people have started working 8-9-hour shifts. After getting a release in the UK and the US later in 2024, Sister Midnight has finally been released in India. It is currently running in the theaters.
