Permission to release ‘Lafangey’ after removing vulgar content

All the film censor boards in the country, including the Pakistan Board of Film Censors (CBFC), allowed the release of the upcoming film ‘Lafangey’ on Eid-ul-Adha after removing obscene phrases and scenes.

He appealed to the people to come to the cinemas with their families on the occasion of Eid-ul-Adha and watch his film.
