The move comes in the wake of air strikes by the IAF on Jaish-e-Mohammed's biggest terror camp in Balakot in Pakistan's Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province early on Tuesday in retaliation to the February 14 attack in Pulwama, Jammu and Kashmir, which had left 40 Indian CRPF troopers dead.

In light of the current situation the team of Total Dhamaal has decided to not release the film in Pakistan.

Besides, after the Pulwama attack, Indian film associations instructed filmmakers to avoid using any Pakistani talent in their movies.
