Mukesh Bhatt's latest release The Killer has been banned in Dubai. It seems that the film has shown the Dubai cops in a bad light. Apparently some scenes have mocked the cops. But some sources claim that the real reason behind the ban is a character named Jabbar who is said to have been modeled on the underworld don Dawood Ibrahim.

Representatives at Adlabs who are the overseas distributors and Vishesh films were not available for comment. Directed by Hasnain S Hyderabadwala and Raksha Mistry, The Killer stars Irrfan Khan, Emraan Hashmi and Nisha Kothari.
