Shah Rukh Khan’s Raees has been banned in Pakistan after the Censor Board found the content unsuitable for screening in the country. The content and theme was found to be objectionable as it shows muslims in bad light and undermines Islam.
“The portrayal of Muslims is negative and the film’s content undermines Islam, and a specific religious sect, portraying Muslims as criminals, wanted persons and terrorists” an official source in the censor board said.
The distributors of Raees, Hum Films had last week submitted the film to the censor board for clearance to release in the Pakistani cinema halls after the government allowed screening of Hindi films last week.
Karan Johar’s Ae Dil Hai Mushkil and Hrithik Roshan’s Kaabil were the first two movies to release in the country after the ban last year.
“Raees will not release in Pakistan according to a decision taken by the censor board today. It shows Muslims in very negative light and could lead to reactions from different sects and it is unsuitable for public screening” a source told PTI.
It is already a flop movie…so people r not interested.
@ tiger the real donkey , who is pakistani ? Actually it’s your idol who is pakistani.he always make films on pakistani background like ETT, BB and always supports terrorists like yakub memon.Your are a ‘dhabba’ on the name of human beings.get lost u loser.
@hrithik:
“I guess Pak censor board could not digest Raees helping hindus and refusing to stop help to them during curfew with punch line ‘Main dharam ka dhanda nahi karta”
Very well said.
@10:34pm Tiger
Precisely….
Lol
So what was the need of having Mahira Khan in Raees if still won’t get released in Pak? Lol
@Heropanti you fool you are the same Pakistani censor board who doesn’t understand
I wanted to say they are behaving like all the Pakistanis are good guys(Saints) that’s what I meant to say. And you idiot listen Saint in Hindi and Urdu
Hindi- Sadhu
Urdu-Darvesh
Almost every religion has saints.
If India was so good like the Indian comments are showing then their terror groups like shiv sena and bal thackry wont exist , shame on you for banning artists.

comparing Indian local extremist groups to terror groups of pak sponsored, supported and saudi funded groups in the name of holy war is childish argument.
Truth is Pakistan actually trains pakistani terror groups for kashmir or other indian attacks. Pakistani military physically helps them infiltrate. This is the truth even pakistani children can understand. Pakistan is a military garrison state.
Please, tell me when VHP, shiv sena, RSS crossed international border and attacked Karachi or Lahore. Being an ultra right wing extremist group is one thing and terror groups is another.
Read my last two lines comprehensively. Hopefully, your childish argument matures into adult argument with time.

Pakistan army training terror, you must be insane , lol now that show why there is so much hate in India for pak. The answer is the extremist and patriot indian media who tell you guys lies and you blindly believe it.
If pak army were training terror then the US would haven’t declared pak the non-nato biggest allies for war against terror.
Again there is some sort of media here as well who says India Raw trains Afghan terror to attack in pak.
This never ends “It takes two to make a quarrel”.
PS if ind didn’t ban pak artist , pak’d not ban their movies , i always see Ind takes the first step of hate.
France and German faught wars latter became best friends.
Us-japan , faught wars became friends. But Ind don’t want to be friend they always want to be enemy not even our pm visit their country.
Nevertheless this conversation is never going anywhere so enjoy Bollywood and grow up all of you.
