Shivaay & ADHM not to release in Pak
on Oct 26, 2016
Ending days of speculation, confirmed reports have been coming in that the two big releases this weekend – Karan Johar’s Ae Dil Hai Mushkil and Ajay Devgn’s Shivaay – will not release in Pakistan. Pakistani exhibitors were supposed to put an end to the ban that they had declared on Indian films in the wake of the Uri attacks on September 18 and India's retaliatory strikes on September 29. However, the Quetta tragedy, which led to the deaths of at least 61 security personnel, has pushed Pakistan to put a hold on these plans. The speculation of lifting the ban began after Maharashtra Navirman Sena ended its ban on the release of Ae Dil Hai Mushkil, starring Pakistani star Fawad Khan. Ae Dil Hai Mushkil starring Ranbir Kapoor, Anushka Sharma, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Fawad Khan, and Shivaay starring Ajay Devgn are scheduled to release in theatres on October 28.
