In the recent past, Mammootty’s Kaathal – The Core’, Thalapathy Vijay’s ‘Beast’, ‘Sita Ramam’, Tamil film ‘FIR’ and Mohanlal’s ‘Monster’ were banned in the Gulf Countries. Gulf Countries ban release of films over the portrayal of Islamists as extremists, LGBTQ content and on religious grounds.

This Rs 250 crore worth film will release in theatres on January 25.
