Pakistani artists are not banned in Bollywood

The Dhaka Times Desk Pakistani artists were ordered to leave India due to the tension between India and Pakistan over Kashmir. It was heard that Pakistani artists will no longer be able to participate in Bollywood.

The rumor that there was a ban on Pakistani artists in Bollywood is no more. Because the Indian government has not banned Pakistani artists before. Now that excitement is not what it used to be. So it is assumed that there will be no surprise when Pakistani artists return to India.

India's Union Information and Broadcasting Minister M Venkaiah Naidu clarified on Wednesday that the Indian government has not imposed any restrictions on Pakistani artistes. However, he also advised the directors to be aware of Indian sentiments.

On the other hand, the Indian media reported that the Pakistani government is thinking of lifting the ban on Indian films. Pakistani distributors and hall owners have been able to predict the loss that Bollywood movies will incur if they are not released. So after getting the news that 'Ae Dil Hai Mushkil' is being released with Fawad Khan, they started thinking about lifting the ban.

It is known that the news that the Indian Army has returned the MNS's offer of Rs 5 crore donation has also made them happy. Joraj Lashari, head of the 'Pakistani Exhibitors and Distributors Association' said that, 'Our primary demand was that Pakistani actors should be given the opportunity to work in India. Now it appears that the matter is gradually moving in a positive direction.

It is known that distributors stopped showing Indian films in protest after the ban of 'Impa'. It wasn't a band in that sense. The reaction of the Indian Army against the MNS and the release of Fawad Khan's film are believed to send a good message.'
