Shoot on Sight

Indian film “Shoot On Sight” has been banned in Pakistan as it portrays an actor from that country as a terrorist. Jagmohan Mundra’s next film “Shoot On Sight” is based on the July 2007 London bombings. But Mundra said that he is not surprised. Mundra said, “Yes my film “Shoot On Sight” has been banned in Pakistan because Pakistani actor Mikaal Zulfikar who plays Zaheer, a terrorist, is shown to be from that country”. Pakistan has objected not only to the actor but also to the character of the terrorist being from Pakistan.

He said, “In a dialogue between Naseeruddin Shah & Om Puri, it is revealed that the character Zaheer is from Pakistan. The Pakistanis didn’t like it”. The film is a riveting drama that unfolds the turmoil in the life of Tariq Ali (Naseer), a Muslim police officer at Scotland Yard, who is asked to track down suspected suicide bombers involved in the strikes.
