From our end, the film has been certified and ready for release,” said the official while requesting anonymity. On the other hand, Distribution Club, the company responsible for distributing Joyland in Pakistan is trying its best to reach a middle ground. Last week, Senator Ahmed urged the PDM-led government to stop the release of Joyland in Pakistan because of the ‘anti-Islam’ values it promotes.
