Judgemental Hai Kya also features Brijendra Kala, Jimmy Shergill and Amyra Dastur. The film has been at the centre of controversies - it first attracted wrath from the Indian Psychiatry Society who objected to the original title of Mental Hai Kya. An appeal and few discussions later, the name was changed to Judgemental Hai Kya.

It was again in news when the film was set for a box office clash with Hrithik Roshan’s Super 30. However, Hrithik’s film release date was shifted. More recently, Kangana’s spat with a journalist at a song launch for the film left the guild of entertainment journalists upset and they declared a ban on her. Producer Ekta Kapoor later apologised for the incident, seeking full support for her film.
