Nepal resumes screening of Hindi films, but not Adipurush

Ban on Hindi films; Mayor’s statements

Kathmandu Mayor Balendra Shah is determined not to screen the film and is also ready to face the consequences of the same.

Regarding the court order to lift the ban, the judge in Nepal said that he believes that no one is above the nation and nationality. It is their fundamental right to do business freely following Nepali law. A Nepali court says a film approved by the censor board cannot be banned because it has already been certified by a court.

Meanwhile, Adipurush’s business is going down a lot. Since Monday, the movie is losing its business and even the master move of reducing the ticket prices is not working in their favour. Om Raut and Manoj Muntashir were secured by the police due to threats to their lives.
