Mahira Khan’s debut film Raees released globally after being embroiled in many controversies and is minting some good collections all over the world. While the fans of Mahira were waiting for the film to release, something unfortunate happened as the Central Censor Board banned the screening of Raees in Pakistan.
This is was surely not welcomed by the director of Raees.

Recently, Shah Rukh and his team had a press conference in which Mahira joined them through video call. She said that Pakistani fans are waiting for the movie to be released in Pakistan. But the current news has disappointed the well wishers for sure. Many of them have taken the issue to social media and posted their reaction on Twitter. Take a look at the tweets here:

#Raees got banned in #Pakistan, may be because a Muslim cannot be a bootlegger or as romantic as #ShahRukhKhan! #PakistaniLogic #RaeesBan
