Bollywood and its impact on Indo-Pak relations!

[Levina]

Bollywood rules not only pakistan but I think middle-east too !

How would an American know that???

 

[Heinz Guderian]

I think MAdaras cafe was the best film Bollywood gave up till now on Intelligence operation. I don't why it failed, i think it bacame flopm because of Tamilians.

Because Indian audience not able to grasp.

The language almost sounds same. I maybe wrong. But I read it in an article about india's soft power. That bolloywood movies have broader viewership as compared to hollywood.

Madras Cafe - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Haven't seen it.... But will ask some one to down load it...... Look like an interesting one...

 

[nair]

You will like it if you are not a Tamil

I am not Tamil.... and even if that film had shown keralites in a bad light, i would have enjoyed it....I dont see movies thru a political angle....

One of the better John Abraham movies.

@Norwegian should check out Lakshya, my all time fav. Not a big fan of bollywood though. And most of the Indians dont have issue with Pakistanis as people. They just dont like terrorism originating from Pakistan for obvious reasons.

Indians are Drama baz Nation , they like to see stuff like that
it helps them in their Patriotism

I didn't see these movies as Hindi is tough for me , but, I like the comedy serial citizen khan very much...

I have been trying to start this thread for weeks, but it took me some time to revisit all the movies that I have seen over the years regarding Indo-Pak affairs. In my objective observation, most Bollywood movies made on the subject are not anti-Pakistan as a nation, rather they are anti-terrorism and anti-Army. They usually seek to expose Pakistan Army's alleged role in funding and training of armed Islamic Jihadis aka. 'terrorists' in their so-called holy war of 'Ghazwa-e-Hind'.
But at the same time, there are other movies that give us a positive message about peaceful coexistence, not only between our people but also between our radical governments and warring armies. Here are my all-time favorites in chronological order:

Border (1997) - IMDb

Mission Kashmir (2000) - IMDb

Gadar: Ek Prem Katha (2001) - IMDb

The Hero: Love Story of a Spy (2003) - IMDb

Veer-Zaara (2004) - IMDb

Main Hoon Na (2004) - IMDb

Ek Tha Tiger (2012) - IMDb

PK (2014) - IMDb

Please let us know if any of these movies molded your views on Pakistan in a positive or negative way. Also add other movies in the list if you believe they had a greater impact on you, emotional or otherwise.

Hmm..I liked only Border among them..And may be Veer Zara too.. but mostly for it's music and the naturally beautiful Preity Zinta.

I think the overdose of musicals somehow appeals to the heart better !
