NEW DELHI, Feb 13 (Agencies): MSG The Messenger, the controversial film of Dera Sacha Sauda chief Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh, today released in the capital amid tight security with three halls in West Delhi opting not to screen the movie.
Wave Cinemas Raja Garden and Movie Time Cinemas in Rajouri Garden and Pitampura chose not to release the film in their theatres.
"We are not releasing the film. Though we haven't faced any protest here, we decided to be in the safer side by not releasing it as the film has some issues," said Anuj Kumar, manager Movie Time multiplex.
Echoing the same sentiments, Deepak Kelkar, manager Wave Cinemas Raja Garden, said, "None of our theatres from Wave Cinema (in NCR) has released the film. We don't want to take any unnecessary risk."
