The new release of actor Ayushmann Khurrana "Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan" has been banned in UAE for its homosexual content.
According to a media report, the film's makers even offered to edit the kiss between Ayushmann and co-actor Jitendra, but to no avail.
A source from Dubai told the portal: "We knew this was
coming. Or, rather not coming. We really wanted to see what 'Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan' has to say, since it is the first Bollywood film that normalises a gay relationship. Sadly, all films with gay content are banned in these parts."
Directed by Hitesh Kewalya, "Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan" is a love story between two men in small-town India.
