The Islamabad-based actor, has been facing visa issues, due to which he has been unable to promote his film in Mumbai. His co-star Bipasha Basu has been making solo appearances at events.
Islamabad has witnessed escalating protests from the opposition led by cricketer-turned-politician Imran Khan and cleric Tahur il &ndash;Qadri, who wish to bring down the Nawaz Sharif government. This has only added to the actor&rsquo;s woes as it&rsquo;s getting more difficult to get his paperwork done on time. When asked about Imran making it to Mumbai for the film&rsquo;s promotions, director Vikram Bhatt said, &ldquo;I doubt it.&rdquo;
But Imran has not given up on hope. The actor says, &ldquo;I will arrive in a few days. It was just a small delay in the process. I will join the unit soon. In fact, Creature 3D is releasing in Pakistan on the same day.&rdquo;
Earlier, as reported in our story, &lsquo;Visa woes&rsquo; (hitlist, July 18), the actor didn&rsquo;t make it to the trailer launch of the film in July due to visa issues. Imran was last in Mumbai in June when he launched a channel that airs Pakistani serials; he stars in one of its shows, Mera Naseeb. The actor apparently had to wait for sometime before applying for a visa again.
