The Election Commission is learnt to have finalised its stand on whether the ban imposed by it on the biopic on Prime Minister Narendra Modi should continue.
Officials, drawn from the poll panel's model code and legal divisions, had on Wednesday watched the biopic on the directions of the Supreme Court.
On Thursday, the producers had put forth their views before the Commission.
The EC was to inform the top court of its stand on Friday.But the court's registry was closed on account of Good Friday.
Though there was no official word on the issue, sources in the know said the view, to be submitted to the Supreme Court in a sealed envelope, "may not digress" from its earlier order.
The sealed envelope could be submitted on Saturday
