With only a day to go for the biggest Box Office clash of recent times, between Ajay Devgn-led ‘Singham Again’ and Kartik Aaryan and team’s ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3’, releasing on November 1, on the Hindu festival of Diwali, it has been reported by Indian media, that neither of the two titles would be releasing in Saudi Arabia.
According to the details, the cop drama has been stopped from releasing in the Gulf country due to the portrayal of ‘religious conflict’, whereas, the horror-comedy has been banned over homosexual references.
Apart from the Arab country, ‘Singham Again’ will not be released in Singapore as well on Friday.
Reportedly, the title’s censor process was not completed on time, forcing makers to push its release in Singapore by a week. It will now hit the theatres in the Asian country next Thursday, November 7.
