No show for 'Phantom' in Pakistan

21st August 2015

And the history repeats one more time. A Pakistan court has ban Kabir Khan's 'Phantom' starring Saif Ali Khan and Katrina Kaif. Hafiz Saeed had filed a plea in a Pakistan court in order to ban the film, which shows the aftermath of 26/11 Mumbai attack and global terrorism.

After listening to complainant's counsel and government law officer, Lahore High Court has banned the release of the film in Pakistan.

Saeed's advocate Dogar says, "There is a direct threat to the life of the petitioner (Saeed) and his associates emanating from the content of the trailer of the film."

"It is obvious that dialogues coming out of the lips of the different Indian actors and actresses will poison the minds of Pakistani public and will portray Hafiz Saeed as terrorist even though JuD has not been declared as a proscribed organisation."

Earlier 'Agent Vinod' and 'Ek Tha Tiger' were banned in Pakistan for the same issue.
