Puhleez! For those of you who think this is a muslim country and there should be no FILM INDUSTRY, I'd like to state that is absolutely unrealistic...
Check out our videos these days? do those totally perscribe to the rules of Islam?? What about our dramas - when they show a man and woman touching...isn't that also unIslamic?
The whole entertainment industry is Unislamic if you want to view it from a strict Islamic point of view.
However, if the audience is mature and if the movie-makers are mature - you can have a film industry that is also mature...
Thus, the problem isn't really money or equipment - its the people running the show and the people watching the show. The people of Pakistan need to change. Shutting down the film industry wont change people. It'll just make them run to the local porn shop.

Agreed....but Pakistani filmakers do need to make films with at least a reasonable budget and equipment. Lots of films in Lollywood are made really cheaply and use the cheapest equipment. These kind of films should be banned. Yeh Dil Aapa Hua is a good example of the film industry going in the right direction. Although, the script could have been much better and fresh, other than that...the film was a good standard film.
