Bangladeshi cinema halls have been allowed to import Indian films subject to conditions a few days ago. Owing to this decision, Shah Rukh Khan starrer "Pathaan" is going to be released in theatres across the country. On Tuesday, the film will be sent to Bangladesh Film Censor Board, and after it gets permission, it is said to be released on May 5.

After verifying the necessary procedures including Bank LC, the Censor Board has issued a letter on April 27 asking to issue NOC (No Objection) for the film to reach the Censor Board office after allowing "Pathaan" from customs in the import process.
