A Bollywood comedy film featuring a Bin Laden lookalike has been banned in Pakistan by the government's film censor board, "on grounds that extremists could use it as a pretext to launch attacks," according to Al Jazeera.

The Hindi movie, Tere Bin Laden ("Without You, Bin Laden") is the tale of a Pakistani journalist who pretends to score an exclusive interview with the al-Qaeda chief after finding a look-alike.

"By selling his 'breakthrough scoop' to news channels he hopes to increase his chances to immigrate to the US."
