“Censor boards in Islamabad and Karachi have decided to ban the film
because it portrays a negative image of Muslims and the negative
characters in the film also have Muslim names,” the newspaper said.
Akshay Kumar’s Baby, about an Indian spy mission to catch a dreaded terrorist, will not be shown in Pakistan as the Censor Board of the country refused to allow it screening.
All CDs and DVDs of the film have also been banned in Islamabad. A representative of the film’s distributor, Everready Pictures informed the paper that the film has been banned in Pakistan.
Earlier, director Neeraj Pandey was quoted as saying that the film was not “anti-Pakistan.”
The film stars famed Pakistani TV drama actor Mikaal Zulfiqar as well as Rasheed Naz, who played the villainous cleric in Shoaib Mansoor’s Khuda Ke Liye.
