"We have just received a formal apology from Yash Chopra, who has agreed to not only remove the objectionable portions from the title song but has also assured us that he will not use those lines in any of his future films. In view of the apology and his assurance, the state government has decided to lift the ban. Movie halls will begin screening the film by Saturday evening."
