Pakistan's
censor
board
has
not
cleared
Aamir
Khan
production
Delhi
Belly.
Therefore
the
exhibitorsand
cinema
hall
owners
forced
to
put
off
plans
to
release
the
film
later
this
week.
Atrium
Cinema,
a
leading
cineplex
of
Karachi,
posted
on
its
Facebook
page
yesterday,
"It
has
just
been
notified
by
the
distributors
of
film
Delhi
Belly
that
Central
Board
of
Film
Censors,
Islamabad,
have
not
passed
the
film
for
public
exhibition.
Thus,
the
film
will
not
be
released
in
cinemas
in
Pakistan."
The
Pakistani
exhibitors
were
very
keen
on
release
the
film
starring
Imran
Khan,
Kunaal
Roy
Kapur,
Poorna
Jagannathan,
Vir
Das
and
Shenaz
Treasurywala,
on
Friday.
The
reason
for
the
ban
cannot
be
discovered
because
the
censor
board
was
not
available
for
the
comment.
Last
year,
the
Pakistani
censor
board
had
banned
the
film
Tere
Bin
Laden
starring
singer
Ali
Zafar,
from
exhibition.
The
film
was
banned
from
release
due
to
concerns
that
the
depiction
of
the
slain
Al
Qaida
could
trigger
terror
attacks
on
cinema
halls.
