IMDb Removes Satluj’s User Rating
Filmmaker Sanjay Gupta didn’t hold back, calling IMDb’s system “bogus” while reacting to the missing rating. His comments added fuel to an already growing online debate, with many users questioning how ratings are calculated and why they sometimes disappear without notice.
Adding to the conversation, Satluj writer Niren Bhatt revealed that the team has received no communication regarding the missing score. According to him, the lack of clarity has only increased confusion around the situation.
While IMDb has not publicly commented on the matter, industry observers believe ratings can occasionally be removed or recalculated if the platform detects unusual voting activity. However, without an official statement, the exact reason behind Satluj’s disappearing 9.5 rating remains unknown.
For now, the incident has shifted attention from the film itself to a larger question: How transparent are online movie ratings, and should audiences rely on them when deciding what to watch?
As the conversation continues online, many viewers are now waiting for IMDb to address the controversy and explain what really happened to Satluj’s highly talked-about rating.
