Multiple Bollywood films stuck without release, including Salman Khan’s Maatrubhumi

As of August 20, 2026, several high-profile Hindi films remain in limbo with no confirmed theatrical or streaming release. The list includes Omung Kumar's romantic action drama Silaa, which is in post-production but reportedly facing budget issues after involving more than four producers. Salman Khan's Maatrubhumi: May War Rest in Peace, originally planned for an April 17 release, also lacks a release date, with the actor's production house clarifying in July 2026 that the film has not been submitted to the CBFC.

Other stuck projects include Laikey Laikaa, starring Abhay Verma and Rasha Thadani, which was shot a year ago but has struggled to find a buyer. Abhay Verma's other film JC (Jacob Cardoso) is reportedly exploring a direct-to-digital release but has no buyer. Pankaj Tripathi and Aditi Rao Hydari's Paarivarik Manoranjan completed shooting in June 2025 but remains unsold. Taapsee Pannu's Gandhari went into reshoots due to creative differences and has no release date. Sanjay Mishra and Neeraj Sood's Pritam Pyaare, produced by Aamir Khan, has been unreleased for over three years.
