This Diwali, the Indian box office will see a major clash between two Bollywood films- directed by Rohit Shetty and Bhool Bhulaiayaa 3 directed by Anees Bazmee. Both films are part of successful franchises and have a massive fan following. While one comes from an established cop universe, the other is known to be a fun horror-comedy.
The cast of both films is rather interesting and is expected to pull the audiences to the theatres. While both films will have a worldwide release on November 1, the films will not be released in Saudi Arabia. Why Singham Again and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 will not be released in Saudi Arabia? The film censor board in Saudi Arabia is pretty strict and often bans films that do not follow their guidelines.
The country usually bans films that have religiously sensitive material, explicit sexual content, or themes that go against local customs. Some films are edited to meet Saudi standards, while others are not shown at all. So what aspect of Singham Again and did not sit well with Saudi Arabian authorities? As per reports, while Singham Again will not be released in the Middle-Eastern country due to its portrayal of 'religious conflict', Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 is banned over homosexual references.
The films will however be released in rest of UAE. Meanwhile, Singham Again will be released in Singapore a week later on November 7. According to a report in Bollywood Hungama, the delay in getting a censore certificate is the cause behind the same.
Besides Ajay Devg.
