According to information Pakistani authorities stopped issuing NOCs for the screening of Indian films, holding up the release of new movies like ‘Gunday’ and ‘Hasee Toh Phasee’.
Nawab Siddiqui, Pakistan’s leading distributors and exhibitors who run the Atrium Cineplex in Karachi, said authorities stopped the screening of Indian movies last month.
Nawab said, “The whole process has just been stopped and we couldn’t get NOCs for new films like ‘Gunday’ and ‘Hasee Toh Phasee’, which were eagerly anticipated in our cinemas”.
He declared, “Investors and business groups are very worried because they have invested millions of rupees while new parties are willing to channel investment, but now everything is at a standstill for the last few weeks as no new Indian films have been released”.
The manager of Capri cinema said that the irony is that pirated copies of ‘Gunday’ are being aired on cable across Karachi but it can’t be shown legally in cinemas.
