 Anniversary 2025 Hindi Dual Audio on DesireMovies

There was some controversy upon the movie's release. The film's team, including Jan Komasa's representatives, and the producer, accused Lionsgate of suppressing the movie's release and marketing. They claimed the film was an "incendiary" topic and that the studio was afraid of how it would be received emotionally in a polarized political climate (despite the film itself not portraying political sides or mentioning specific parties). Critics noted the unusually low profile of the film, with a limited theatrical release (809 screens) and a lack of reviews from major news outlets. There was also very little promotion for the film which is uncommon for a movie with a popular star-studded cast. Many of the talents in front of the camera also 'distanced themselves' from the project with the films 'toned down' premiere only being attended by a couple of the primary actors. Despite largely positive reviews and excellent notices for the lead cast (notably Diane Lane and Dylan O'Brien), the films box office performance suffered as a result due to the lack of marketing. Allegedly, the powers that be also held back the film from Academy voters - despite Oscar buzz for Diane Lane.
