Haiwaan is set to hit theatres this week, and the film has now cleared a key hurdle ahead of its theatrical release. The upcoming film has received its certification from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC), with a UA 16+ rating.
According to film trade analyst Taran Adarsh, the CBFC certified Haiwaan on September 8, 2026, clearing the film ahead of its scheduled theatrical debut. The UA 16+ classification means the film has been certified for audiences aged 16 and above under the applicable certification category.

With a runtime of nearly 2 hours and 45 minutes, Haiwaan will offer audiences an extended big-screen experience. The duration places the film among the longer theatrical releases, giving the makers substantial time to unfold its narrative.
