Ajay Devgn's Singham Again and Kartik Aaryan's Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 are poised for a significant box-office showdown. Nevertheless, these Diwali releases will be available worldwide, with the exception of Saudi Arabia.
The censorship board in this Middle Eastern nation is quite stringent regarding the portrayal of sensitive religious content and sexual themes.
Saudi Arabia's film censor board maintains strict guidelines, frequently prohibiting movies that fail to comply with their standards. The country typically restricts films that include religiously sensitive or sexually explicit material, especially themes that contradict local customs. Some films are altered to align with Saudi requirements, while others face outright bans.
Singham Again is prohibited in this Middle Eastern country due to its depiction of “religious conflict,” while Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 faced a ban because of the board's objections to “homosexual references.” However, both films are set to release in the rest of the UAE.
Singham Again marks the third sequel in the cop franchise with Ajay Devgn reprising the lead role. Additionally, this film represents the fifth entry in Rohit Shetty's cop universe.
Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 is the third film in the horror-comedy series. Alongside Kartik Aaryan and Triptii Dimri, the cast includes Vidya Balan, Madhuri Dixit, Rajpal Yadav, Vijay Raaz, and others in key roles. In a twist from the usual storyline, this instalment features two Manjulikas portrayed by Vidya and Madhuri.
Both Singham Again and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 are set to hit theaters on November 1.
