Film
exhibitors
as
well
as
the
distributors
from
Karachi
have
gone
ahead
and
filed
a
petition
with
the
PCB
or
the
Pakistani
Censor
Board
so
that
the
Indian
film
Tere
Bin
Laden
can
be
released
in
Pakistan.
The
movie
is
banned
all
over
Pakistan
for
panic
of
terrorist
attacks.
The
film,
was
released
in
India
on
the
July
16.
This
movie
also
debuts
Pakistani
pop
star
Ali
Zafar.
He
enacts
the
role
of
as
an
over-ambitious
TV
reporter,
who
uses
the
lookalike
of
the
Al
Qaeda
chief
Osama
so
as
to
get
into
USA.
Nadeem
Mandviwalla,
official
distributor
of
movies
in
Pakistan
says
that
they
have
all
filed
an
appeal
with
the
Appellant
Board
of
the
Censor
Board;
however
the
Appellant
Board
of
the
Censor
Board
has
withheld
its
decision
till
the
next
week.
Nadeem
Mandviwalla
also
adds
that
in
case
the
movie
isn"t
released
in
Pakistan,
the
movie
distributors
would
get
a
big
blow,
since
pirated
copies
would
dominate
the
market.
The
Pak
Censor
board
hasn"t
yet
given
a
clean
chit
to
the
film.
