KARACHI – Pakistani superstar Mikaal Zulfiqar, while sharing his own experience with local media has made revelations regarding how the Bollywood film fraternity treats the Pakistani artists.
Mikaal Zulfiqar has been featured in a total of 4 Bollywood movies, of the 4, film Baby was his worst experience, that led to his decision of not working across the border any more.
He denounced the Indian film industry of deliberately casting the Pakistani artists in controversial, negative roles and projects.
According to media reports, Mikaal was quite critical of this negative aspect of Bollywood that portrays the Pakistani artist in a negative light and then leaves them to face the music all by themselves.
He revealed his own bad experience with the movie Baby which was both anti-Islam and anti-Pakistan, inquiring on both counts to which he was affirmed of nothing of the sort.

But after the release, he was utterly disappointed at the negative connotations and decided against working in the Indian film industry.
“As I wasn’t in the first half of the film, I had no idea about the script and only learned about the anti-Pakistan thing when the film released. After that, I decided to work only in Pakistan rather than in Bollywood as we do not have any respect there,” stated Mikaal.
The Shehr-e-Zaat star also slammed India for ‘Veena Malik’s’ controversial photo shoot, for which the actress had to bear the brunt of criticism. The actor further said that he was a proud Pakistani who prefers working in his home country, where he is loved and respected by his fans.
