Pakistani actor Ali Zafar has worked in Hindi films like Tere Bin Laden, Mere Brother Ki Dulhan, Dear Zindagi, and Kill Dill. In an interview that has gone viral, he spoke about why he can’t collaborate with Shah Rukh Khan.

The actor-singer revealed, “As of now, he shouldn’t collaborate with me. I think things might get difficult for him there. He added Khan wanted to collaborate with him for his 2018 film Zero but it couldn’t happen.

Ban on Pakistani artists lifted

It has been seven years since a ban on Pakistani artists in India. Many talents from the neighboring country like Mahira Khan, Fawad Khan, Atif Aslam, Ali Zafar, Javed Sheikh, Rahat Fateh Ali Khan relocated to their home country after a ban was imposed on them from working in India. The Bombay High Court has now recently rejected a petition that sought to ban them from working in the country.

A petition to ban the Pakistani artists to work in India filed by a cine worker was heard by the Bombay High Court. Justice Sunil B Shukre and Justice Firdosh P Pooniwalla, presiding over the case observed that it was a retrograde step in promoting cultural harmony, unity and peace. They added that the petition lacked merit.

Why the ban was imposed

It was back in 2016, when the Indian Motion Picture Producers Association (IMPPA) made the resolution of not working with the Pakistani artists after the Uri attack.
