MUMBAI: While there is news that several people including several film people including a few politicians and film personalities have raved about Ram Gopal Varma‘s ambitious project The Attacks of 26/11, the film has hit a rough patch with the UAE Censor Board. It has been rejected after it was reviewed by the Dubai Censors.

"It is a well known fact that the 10 terrorists from the terror outfit Lashkar-e-Taiba from Pakistan had attacked Mumbai, and that is something that the Dubai censors have been shying away from showing," exclaimed a source from the film unit.

The Bahrain and the Oman governments have however cleared the film and viewers from Emirates may travel to Oman over the weekend to watch the film.

The film is a recount of the 2008 Mumbai terror attack which left 166 people dead.

While Nana Patekar plays a joint commissioner of police facing an enquiry over the attacks, Sanjeev Jaiswal essays the role of terrorist Ajmal Kasab, who was executed recently. The film also features Atul Kulkarni and Ganesh Yadav.
