Farah Khan: I Would Prefer To Take Somebody From My Country For My Movies
Here's the latest update from the world of Bollywood. We bet you wouldn't want to miss this. Read on for details... The choreographer-director made her stand clear on the ongoing Indo-Pak tension
It looks like it will be a while before the controversy around banning Pakistani artistes in the wake of terrorist attacks in Uri settles down. A while ago we told you that Ajay Devgn is of the opinion that the films featuring Pakistani actors ready for release should be allowed to hit theatres (Ajay Devgn Backs Karan Johar’s Ae Dil Hai Mushkil, Oct 9).
Choreographer- director Farah Khan also echoes the same sentiment. At an event in New Delhi yesterday, she said, “I think there are a handful people, not even handful but may be two people we are talking about. They are not important in the scheme of things. When they did those movies, it wasn’t illegal to have Pakistani actors working in Indian movies. The movies were shot at considerable expense and hard work, I don’t think it is fair to ban those movies.”
She further remarked that as a policy the Indian film industry should focus on working with their own people from now on. “I think from now on, if you are saying we should not work with them, I say we have enough talent in our country and we should work with people from our country. What do we don’t have that they have? I think we are far better. So, we would work with our people. I would definitely prefer to take somebody from my country for my movies,” she concluded.
