While angry Shiv Sena activists are already tearing off the movie's posters, some may even buy tickets to go inside and cause maximum damage there," a senior police official told PTI.
The official said theatre owners are confident that any protests outside the cinemas would be dealt sternly.
However, they fear the consequences and extent of damage if the rabble-rousers enter the movie halls, the officer said.
Sentiments are running high after SRK, the celebrity co-owner of Kolkata Knight Riders, an IPL franchise, favoured inclusion of Pakistani cricketers for the game's third season.
Shiv Sena has come out openly against the superstar demanding an apology from him. Sena has also threatened the city theatre owners to stall the movie's screening.
Meanwhile, My Name... distributors met Police Commissioner D Sivanandhan, to discuss the situation. The top cop assured them full security.
However, no theatre owners have met the police yet. "If the owners demand protection, security would be provided," said Joint Police Commissioner Himanshu Roy.
