MUMBAI: Reliance Entertainment‘s Neil Nitin Mukesh-starrer David has not released in the UAE. The thriller was due to release on Thursday.

The Hindi language film is still under review, while the film‘s Tamil version, with a slightly different cast and storyline, was released as scheduled.

Media Content Tracking Department director Juma Obaid, "The Hindi version of David has extra scenes that we have to see closely. We will need to watch it again." His team is scheduled to review the film again today.

Cinemas in Dubai confirmed that tickets were available for the Tamil-language film while the Hindi version has been taken off.

Directed by Bejoy Nambiar, the thriller traces the lives of three individuals by the same name David. The three stories are set in three different time periods.

In the Hindi version, Mukesh plays a gangster, whose story could be a part of the objected portions. But the Tamil version starring actors Vikram and Jiva does not feature the character.
