Re: How Bollywood shows Pakistan in their moives.
The movie covers the love story and it perhaps got a tragic end. The point was that Pakistani viewers were mature enough to tolerate such topics, even just after 3 years of 1965 war between India and Pakistan.
While Pakistani viewers still watch movies like ‘Ghadar’ and ‘Border’, I don’t think Indian viewers got that level of tolerance. A recent backlash on Zee Zindagi for showing Pakistani drama ‘Dastan / Waqt ne kia kya sitam’ based on 1947 partition, shows that when it comes to tolerate portrayal of controversial issues, the viewers on other side of the border are more uncomfortable than viewers on our side of border.
