VO said Visa Approved but current status is Administrative Processing
Details below for Interview :

Location : Kolkata
Fingerprinting : Dec 11th
Visa Interview Date : Dec 12th

Been in US since 2006 and working as full-time in one of the oldest companies of USA since last 5 years. Went for stamping after 7 years. Interview lasted 5 min, Visa Officer said Visa is approved and kept passports (mine and wife's who is on H4). Gave a white sheet stating generic "Congratulations, your US Non-Immigrant Visa to visit the United States has been approved." followed by details.
When I got home and checked Visa status on CEAC - it says "Your visa case is currently undergoing necessary administrative processing. This processing can take several weeks. Please follow any instructions provided by the Consular Officer at the time of your interview. If further information is needed, you will be contacted. If your visa application is approved, it will be processed and mailed/available within two business days.". Same status as of today also.

Anyone else experienced this - even after VO said Visa is approved and kept passports? If so what is timeline for Visa approval? Any cause for worry?
