Pakistan bans 'Tiger Zinda Hai' over 'demeaning' content

.
I'm sure that the makers made her a "strong" woman who calls shots on how the relationship should proceed though. They were probably hoping for success in Pak after the first one didn't release.

You are correct.

But I can see why even that wouldn't be enough. We S. Asians will always consider "our" women falling for another an embarrassment.

Not limited to South Asians. You should see the heated conversations between the Iranian and Arab membership on this forum. :D

Good night.

Yeh tiger bus bolywood me hi Zynda hay, real life me Chooha bun jata hay
I am so happy its such a shytty film , i read its first instalment called something tiger tha aik was also banned for its explicit anti pakistan content, any movie which is next instalement of anti pak movie should also be banned, but cud u imagine actors like imran abbas was tweeting salman that oh how i so wish this film gets released in pakistan. I was surprised just for some small time bollywood roles these ******* actors are ready to support shytty indian films release in pakistan. On the top of that atif aslam also sang one song in it.
These pak artists are worst sort of traitors.

And i saw the trailer its so shytty they have shown katrina as pakistani isi agent who walks around in hot pants baring half of her asre and dances around with salman, who plays indian raw officer and the alpha male salman works to defeat entire isis out of iraq and syria.

Every indian film should be banned form release in pakistan. I was dreading this films release here, also it is going to clash with two pakistani releases arth 2 and rangreza so it will be in our interest to not allow indian content as our public also does not feel any shame in flocking to theaters to watch indian bollywood crap but saath may inko kashmir bhi chaheeay

Not just this movie entire bollywood needs to be banned and also their TV Channels

Good work, all Indian content in Pakistan should be banned as they are our enemy and leave no chance to harm us.

India have banned all Pakistani content so why their content even considered to be released in Pakistan.

Enjoy the Atif Aslam's beautiful song of this movie. This might change your views

It's the thought of a female Pakistani spy who romances a Indian super-agent. The Pakistani authorities don't like this. :D



Bol was a fine film. And not every Bollywood film is cringey or boring. Below is a list from another thread. Six Bollywood recommendations from me :

1. Vijeta, meaning victor in Hindi ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vijeta_(1982_film) ) - It's set in a military academy and during the 1971 war with Pakistan but it not a jingoistic war film.

2. Arjun ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arjun_(1985_film) ) - It's about a idealistic and unemployed young man who mistakenly gets drawn into corrupt politics.

3. Rocket Singh, Salesman of the year ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocket_Singh:_Salesman_of_the_Year ) - If you want to build a company and/or are jaded by the corruption in the corporate world, watch this film.

4. Harud ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harud ) - A good film on what the ordinary, unaligned Kashmiri goes through in the ongoing Kashmir troubles.

5. Jaane bhi do yaaron ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaane_Bhi_Do_Yaaro ) - The finest Indian satire about the politics-business corruption nexus.

6. Prahaar, meaning attack in Hindi ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prahaar:_The_Final_Attack ) - Set in a army commando training academy and outside it. Not a war film.
Naw man it's more over distortion of history.

Pakistan bans 'Tiger Zinda Hai' over 'demeaning' content

NEW DELHI: Bollywood film "Tiger Zinda Hai", which has been refused the No-objection Certification for import into Pakistan, shows the country's national security and law enforcement institutions and agencies in a demeaning manner, according to the Pakistan censor board chief.

Pakistan's Ministry of Information, Broadcasting, National History and Literary Heritage on Thursday refused the grant of the NoC to the local distributor, Geo TV Network, for "Tiger Zinda Hai" on the recommendation of the Central Board of Film Censors (CBFC), thereby banning the movie in the country.

"As per synopsis, reviews and trailers of the film available in media, in the said feature film, our national security and law enforcement institutions, agencies, individuals and certain state symbols are being shown in a demeaning manner on which we have a 'no-compromise policy'," CBFC's chief Mobashir Hasan told IANS via social media from Islamabad.

The Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif starrer is a sequel to the thriller "Ek Tha Tiger", which too was not released in Pakistan


"(The) first film 'Ek Tha Tiger' was also banned in 2012 as it blatantly flouted the Code of Censorship of Films, 1980 under MPO (Maintenance of Public Order), 1979," Hasan said.

Directed by Ali Abbas Zafar and produced by Yash Raj Films (YRF), "Tiger Zinda Hai" takes forward the story of two spies -- one Indian and the other Pakistani -- Tiger and Zoya, who join forces to battle terrorism. It is slated for worldwide release on December 22.

Sulaiman S. Lalani, Executive Director, Geo TV Network, told IANS from Karachi that their preferred option was that "Tiger Zinda Hai" should have been allowed for import, presented to the censor board, and if any objectionable material was found against the interests of Pakistan/Islam, the exhibition of the film shouldn't have been allowed then.

Hasan explained: "It's the legal and administrative decision of the Ministry of Information to issue the NoC or otherwise after closely examining the request of a distributor."

"Tiger Zinda Hai" has been a much-anticipated Bollywood entertainer in a year which has not seen too many blockbusters. Besides the buzz around its one-of-a-kind action sequences and exotic locations, the on-screen reunion of Salman and Katrina after a gap of five years, has piqued the interest of Bollywood buffs.

Owing to Salman's fan following in Pakistan, there was a high level of interest in the movie there, Lalani said.

"Pakistan loves Salman Khan. 'Sultan' was a mega blockbuster and minted approximately $3 million at the box office in Pakistan. His 'Bajrangi Bhaijaan' was also loved by fans here," Lalani said of the actor, who is amongst Hindi cinema's best known stars.

"Tiger Zinda Hai" director Zafar had told IANS in an earlier interview that it's largely a story about humanity.

"The film is a very human story... it is not political at all. The idea is that when there is a fight between right and wrong, what is at stake, is humanity. And there's nothing bigger than humanity," he had said.

For years, Hindi films have regaled Hindi movie buffs in Pakistan. The country had banned Indian movies in 1968, but that gave a fillip to pirated content. The ban was lifted later.

Eventually, the popularity of Bollywood almost eclipsed the local movie culture in the country, but in the past few years, filmmakers and actors from Pakistan have come into their own.

In February this year, "Kaabil" became the first big Bollywood entertainer to be released in Pakistan after its cinema owners gave up a month-long self-imposed ban to resume screening of Indian films.

India have banned all Pakistani content so why their content even considered to be released in Pakistan.

Because they don't need our content but we need theirs. Simple hard raw truth.

Nobody cares about Salman khan in Pakistan ? His film last year grossed $3 mil in Pakistan alone. That's more than what our own movies make in our own country. Also what about your ancestors. They lived in India. Do you hate them too ?

You don't sound like a Pakistani.

Secondly I do want good relations between Pakistan and India, BUT only when the Kashmir dispute is settled in a fair manner.

Oh believe me I know quite a bit about Pakistan.

I visit Pakistan every now and then.

Do should not bark when you don't know what you are talking about.

I've never watched bollywood.

But they should focus on their national problems instead of being Pakistan-focused all the time.
