Maula Jatt release in India indefinitely delayed

akistani blockbuster The Legend of Maula Jatt will likely not get a theatrical release in India after a spokesperson for cinema chain INOX confirmed that the film’s release has been delayed indefinitely, Indian Express has reported.

The Pakistani action film was set to release in theaters across India on December 30. However, the decision to release the film met with intense criticism by Indian politicians including the president of the cinema wing of the MNS Ameya Khopkar who wrote on Twitter that Fawad Khan’s fans might just have go to Pakistan to watch the film.

Fawad Khan’s fans, traitors may very well go to Pakistan and watch the film.

In another tweet, Khopkar said he will not allow Maula Jatt to be released anywhere in India.

There are plans to release Pakistani actor Fawad Khan’s Pakistani film ‘ The Legend of Maula Jatt’ in India. It is most infuriating that an Indian company is leading this plan. Following Raj Saheb’s orders we will not let this film release anywhere in India.

The last Pakistani film to release in India was Bol in 2011, which also featured Humaima Malick and Mahira Khan, both of whom star in Maula Jatt too.
