The Indian comedy Tere Bin Laden (Without You Laden) has been banned in Pakistan.

The way in which Bin Laden is shown in the movie has been objected by the country's film censor board. And they have warned that it could create a terrorist attack.

The film was going to be released in Pakistan in this week only. The distributors of this movie have informed to the BBC that a petition has been filed against this decision.

The film board has clearly said that for public exhibition Tere Bin Laden was unsuitable. They have stated that it was a controversial subject which shows the character of Osama Bin Laden in a comic way and contains vulgar and objectionable dialogue.

The board has said that the film also contained a bad and negative image of country’s law enforcing agencies.

Correspondents have said that it is not exceptional for Pakistan to ban films, particularly if they are linked to India - Islamabad's longtime regional arch rivalry.

But the impact of such censorship is probable to be limited, for the reason that DVDs are the most common way of watching movies in the country and pirated ones are easily available over there.
