KARACHI – The Sindh Board of Films and Censor on Tuesday (yesterday) banned upcoming Pakistani film Zindagi Tamasha three days before its release.
A notification issued by the board said although it had previously examined and cleared the Sarmad Khoosat’s directorial film, it has now been informed that it may create unrest within a segment of the society.
“If the film titled above is released for public exhibition, it may create unrest within the religious segment of the society and may deteriorate and be detrimental to the peaceful circumstances in the country.
