Salman Khan is Not Happy As his Ek Tha Tiger Will not Be released In Pakistan
The film Ek Tha Tiger is already garnering controversy before even the release of its promos. Following the ban on the movie’s promo in Pakistan, the director Kabir Khan has decided to visit the country with the lead actor Salman Khan.
According to a letter issued by the Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority to all satellite TV channels and cable networks last week, Ek Tha Tiger, set for world release on August 15, is “reportedly based on the activities of ISI and RAW”. And the film, they presume, is aimed at tarnishing the image of the country’s intelligence agency.
Salman portrays a RAW secret agent in the film. It is the story of a Trinity College scientist who is suspected of selling missile secrets to Pakistan. Salman goes to Dublin to track the professor’s activities, where he falls in love with the professor’s secretary, played by Katrina Kaif.
The film releases on August 15.
