Yes. Trailer release doesn’t really protect anything. A trailer is just promotion but certification is separate. So even if the trailer is out, CBFC can still ask for cuts in the final film. It happens more often than people think.
Sometimes the trailer itself causes trouble. People notice a line, complain, screenshots spread, and then the board steps in. After that, filmmakers are told to mute or change things before certification.
Legally, it’s allowed. But practically, it’s tough on directors after spending so much money on making the film.
