In fact very few people have stood up against Pakistan. I remember actor Feroze Khan inspite of having a great love for Pakistan and its actors was banned by them. This was because he had the guts to oppose a few Pakistani officils on their soil, who insulted actress Manisha Koirala while they had gone to promote a film. He left Pakistan without promoting the film and he and his films were banned by the Pakistani governemnt. Here the Pakistani aritistes have the guts to comment as they wish and walk all over us. Imran Khan had called all Indian actresses as prostitutes and not a single hero or any actor from the Hindi film Industry opposed it except Gulshan Grover who was a popular villain at that time..
I also remember seeing a video where actors like Govinda, Anil Kapoor etc etc dance and entertain Dawood Ibrahim on his birthday.. Our lot would go to any extent for money , country and its security be damned !
This is all very new information to me, I mean, regarding Feroze Khan and Imran Khan. Never knew that about Feroze Khan, I admire him more than ever now. As for Imran, what else can be expected, he has no respect for women at all, but how did he make such a statement and get away with it? And to think that girls used to swoon over him each time he appeared on TV or in person. Really sick mentality!
As for our own jet setters, the less that is said the better. Many of these actresses were at the beck and call of Dawood Ibrahim, to provide special service! It is said that he was the one who decided that main lead male roles should be given to Muslims and female roles to Hindu girls, for obvious reasons. The producers who refused were destroyed financially or killed by 'accident'. That is why, after a particular era, where Muslim girls lead the industry, suddenly dwindled to zero or were cast in side roles and Muslim males rose to stardom. How much water this theory holds, I have no idea, but it does have a grain of truth in it, when we see videos of entire star cast entertaining him on his birthday and other special occasions.
That is why, I feel that, opinions of people from this industry hardly matters and when they do make statements, should be totally ignored and not given any kind of coverage. Kill them with indifference!
