Pakistan theatre owners asked to stay on high alert after hate messages against 'Bajrangi Bhaijaan'
Mumbai: Salman Khan’s ‘Bajrangi Bhaijaan’ has been minting money at the box office and has even crossed borders and released in Pakistan, with some minor cuts. However a few people are not happy with Pakistan Censor Board chairman Fakhr-r-Alam’s decision to pass the film, as they feel it has a few elements that are anti-Pakistan and anti-Islam.
However Alam has earlier assured movie goers that there were no such elements in the film, and they could highlight any anti-Pakistan content they found in the film. He even encouraged them to watch two other Pakistani films which released with ‘Bajrangi Bhaijaan’ that weekend.
