Akshay Kumar’s film ‘Bell Bottom’ gets banned by three Arab countries

Bell Bottom

Indian action hero Akshay Kumar’s new film ‘Bell Bottom‘ has been banned by three Arab countries.

According to Indian media reports, Akshay Kumar’s film, which was released worldwide on August 19, has been barred from showing due to distortion of facts.

The three countries that have banned the film include Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Qatar.

Authorized that allows films to be shown in these countries have not issued an exhibition certificate to Bell Bottom, which prevents the film from being shown in cinemas.

The film is based on the hijacking of an Indian airliner in the 1980s and the filmmakers are accused of distorting the facts in the film.

Indian media quoted a source saying, “The second half of Bell Bottom shows the hijackers taking the aircraft to Dubai from Lahore. As per the actual incident that took place in 1984, United Arab Emirates Defence Minister, Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, had personally handled the situation and it was the UAE authorities who had nabbed the hijackers,”

The film, on the other hand, shows Akshay Kumar leading the entire operation, keeping the matter completely secret from the UAE Defense Minister.

Sources said that this may be the reason for banning the screening of the film, however, the reaction of the three countries has not come to light in this regard.

‘I take most vacations and manage to do more films a year’ says Akshay Kumar

Speaking on doing multiple films, Akshay said, “I am not an actor who takes a couple of months to get into the character. I start a film, finish it and move on to my next project. I recently finished Raksha Bandhan and now I am moving on to Cinderella. Once that gets done, I will start with Ram Setu. I have been doing this for my entire career, I don’t think why I should stop it. I don’t find difficulty. I work eight hours a day. I take maximum holidays in the film industry and manage to do three-four films a year and release them. If your work becomes your passion, you get the energy automatically.”

Further speaking of shooting Bell Bottom in the middle of the pandemic, Akshay said, “When we shot the film, the entire world was almost shut. It was probably the first film in the world to go on floors. I still remember we were a cast and crew of 225 people and before taking off to London, I was worried that they might not allow us to fly as the authorities in the United Kingdom would refuse us permission to shoot at the last minute. Everyone in the flight screamed out of joy as soon as we took off. It was almost like we all had got freedom.”
