Controversy
The release of its trailer attracted controversy in Malaysia due to its perceived sexual nature, including criticism from Communications Minister Fahmi Fadzil and the Malaysian Consultative Council for Islamic Organization.[1][2] The Film Censorship Board of Malaysia had approved it for screening in 2022, although some scenes cut from the film were used in the trailer.[2] It was banned in the state of Terengganu.[3]
