Meanwhile, in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Singapore, Malaysia and Hong Kong, the film is currently undergoing review by local censorship authorities. These regions have strict regulatory procedures for content approval, especially for films dealing with politically or socially sensitive themes. While there is no formal objection raised so far, the delay in receiving certification has led the producers to push back the release date in these regions.
