"'Mary Kom' celebrates a national hero, who as we speak is still competing to bring laurels to the country (she will be competing at the Asian Games). We are grateful to the government of Maharashtra for lending their support to the film," Andhare said.

"They also supported 'Bhaag Milkha Bhaag' and now this exemption right from release day will allow large segments of society to experience the spirit of magnificent Mary," he added.
