There are various reasons for a movie to get objections from censor officials to certify it. It's not always explicit content the reason for the objection. Coming to the actual point, the movie Hidimbha did get clearance from censor officials initially, as they felt some intense action sequences were objectionable. Then, the movie is re-censored by the review committee and it got approval.

Hidimbha crossed all hurdles and it will now hit the screens on July 20th. It's a big sigh of relief for the makers who will now promote the movie with double energy. "A tale never told before & a genre never explored before in Indian cinema," reads the release date poster. In fact, the theatrical trailer too hinted the same. It's a first-of-its-kind story and Aneel Kanneganti made it engagingly with many thrills and chills in the story-telling.

Produced by Gangapatnam Sridhar under the banner of Sri Vignesh Karthik Cinemas (SVK Cinemas), in association with OAK Entertainments, Anil Sunkara of AK Entertainments presents it. Hidimbha has Nandita Sweta playing Ashwin’s love interest. B Rajasekar is the cinematographer and Vikas Badisa is the music director.
