THE TIMES OF INDIA (March 3, 2018)

Actor Anushka Sharma's horror film ‘Pari’ has been banned in Pakistan alleging it “promotes black magic, some non-Islamic values and anti-Muslim sentiments”, reports in Pakistan media said.

The country’s censor board also banned the film because it “reportedly contains objectionable sequences where Quranic verses have been used”, said Pakistan’s Geo TV, quoting a cinema owner.

“The film not only mixed Quranic verses with Hindu chants but also portrayed Muslims in a negative light as they were shown using Quranic verses to do black magic,” a source at Pakistan's censor board told Geo.
