Aparshakti Khurana and Pranutan Behl's upcoming comedy Helmet, which highlights societal taboo around condoms, has been given U/A certification by Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC).

"We are extremely happy to get such encouraging feedback from the censor board. I did wonder how they would react to this topic, but our intention was always to make an entertaining film. Their feedback is a testimony to the fact the Helmet will be one of the most relevant films in today's time and will be enjoyed by the family audiences. In the past, no film has ever been made on this topic and we are hoping audiences will have a great laugh watching this satirical drama," said producer Dino Morea. Aparshakti Khurana: Always Gone with the Flow and Done Things That Make Me Feel Happy and Satisfied.
