ISLAMABAD: The Central Film Censor Board has decided to approach the Council of Islamic Ideology for critically reviewing the feature film "Zindagi Tamasha", said Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on Information and Broadcasting Dr Firdous Ashiq Awan in a tweet on Tuesday.

She said the film's producer has also been directed to postpone the release of his film for the time being.
