The movie was proposed to be named as Ghalughara initially, which means massacre, but after the objection of the Censor Board the movie title was renamed to Punjab '95 with 120 scene cuts. After intervention of SGPC, the movie was decided to be released uncut, but with its new title Punjab '95 instead of Ghalughara.^[4][5] The trailer was removed from YouTube in India, a day after its release.

In March 2025, an uncut international release was announced for May 16, 2025, in multiple countries, excluding India. However, the release was postponed once again for undisclosed reasons. Lead actor Diljit Dosanjh shared the news via his Instagram story, stating, "We are sorry, and it pains us to inform you that the movie Punjab '95 will not release on May 16 due to circumstances beyond our control." ^[6]
