Mumbai: Filmmaker Omung Kumar hopes that his upcoming film Sarbjit releases in Pakistan also as there is nothing objectionable in the movie.

Sarbjit is based on Sarabjit Singh, an Indian national, who died following an assault by fellow prisoners at a Pakistani jail.

"We are sending it (the film) to them for their censor board. There is nothing objectionable in the film. We would like it to release everywhere. We have just told the facts and these are from both sides, India as well as Pakistan," Omung told PTI.

Sarbjit stars Randeep Hooda in the titular role while Aishwarya Rai Bachchan plays his sister Dalbir Kaur. Omung, who previously directed Mary Kom, wants the Pakistan censor board to watch the film and then take a call.

"Once they see the film, it will be clear to them. Without seeing the film, anybody can say it's a wrong thing. They should see the film and then take a judgement," said Omung.

Sarbjit is scheduled to release on May 20.
