As per the reports, the makers of \u2018Fighter\u2019<\/em> submitted a re-edited version of the aerial action flick to the UAE ministry for approval, after the title was banned from screening in the Gulf country.<\/p>\n

Reportedly, the team removed some of the \u2018problematic\u2019 scenes and dialogues from the final edit for the release in the UAE.<\/p>\n

However, the latest development suggests that the ministry has once again rejected the re-edited version of the movie as well.<\/p>\n

The film can reportedly lose the business of approximately 2 million USD due to non-release in the UAE\/GCC countries.<\/p>\n

Pertinent to note here that the maiden collaboration of Hrithik Roshan and Deepika Padukone was banned from release across the Gulf countries, except for UAE, with a PG15 classification.<\/p>\n

However, later, the UAE suspended the screening of the film in the Gulf country as well.<\/p>\n

Notably, the mega-budgeted \u2018Fighter\u2019<\/em> crashed at the ticket windows in the very first week of release, grossing a mediocre total of INR250 crores in its worldwide collection by the end of day 7.<\/p>\n

Apart from Roshan and Padukone, the aerial actioner, co-written and directed by filmmaker Siddharth Anand (of\u00a0\u2018Pathaan\u2019\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0\u2018War\u2019\u00a0<\/em>fame), also stars Anil Kapoor,\u00a0Karan Singh Grover, Sanjeeda Sheikh, Akshay Oberoi and Talat Aziz.<\/p>\n
