Re: Famous comedian Shakeel Siddiqui beaten up in India
there is a famous saying "you can only grow where you are planted"
Nusrat fateh ali khan got his fame with his talent, he didn't have to go to india to be recognized by the world. hard work is appreciated no matter what country you are in...my thing is i feel like our musician/actors don't work as hard in pakistan as they do when they go to india. if they had put the same amount of effort in their work in pakistan, people of pakistan would have given them the respect they deserve. take for example shakeel, the type of stage shows he did in pakistan (with the exception of umar shareef shows) were not only vulgar but disrespectful towards women. In my opinion, ones dignity is far more important than money. as for drooling over bollywood stars, i can only speak for myself in that matter. I personally don't watch bollywood films because most of them are copy of hollywood or have a totally pointless story. I still fail to understand why our people die over bollywood films. anyways regarding this whole issue, i think extremists exist on both sides of the border and i think india should stop playing the blame game and work towards finding a peaceful solution rather than creating war hysteria.
