India thinks Saba Qamar is ‘Pakistan’s finest export’

[Samudra Manthan]

So this Muhammad Irfan lookalike is considered good looking in India?

Oh yes he is dishy and Muhammad Irfan looks nothing like him. Muhammad Irfan looks like someone punched his face and it caved in. Sendhil Ramamurthy would be considered tall, dark, and handsome in any part of the world.

 

[Zibago]

Nope. There used to be clear distinction as to what was Hindu and what was Islamic. Muslims always went for lilies and roses

Genday ka phool have always been part of a Punjabi wedding and the dress too normally was orange or orangish-red i dont know from where you are getting your facts

And Muslims never had diyas for anything because it was considered Hindu fire worship custom which it is. Hindus use fire as a means of worship and greeting.

On 12 Rabi ul awal before small lights became common entire streets were lit by diyas it was one of the many traditions that was followed from Hazara to Sindh

Hindu had center mang tikka and Muslims had side wala.

Pakistanis have because of copying everything from Bollywood lost that distinctiveness.

We rebelled against Hindu raj yaar @SarthakGanguly samjhao inko

By the way in those videos they were also singing songs of Jhulelal, the god Sindhi Hindus consider their Ishtadev. So practically worshipping Hindu gods too now

Its not difficult to see Pakistan esp Punjab has borrowed heavily from Hindu tradition and culture, it is so obvious.

Everyone is beautiful in their own way, and if you are one of the few souls who's been told they don't have a particularly appealing face, there is always a mother's heart which will love the face of any child. And if you have your mother's blessings, none other is needed.

Now close this pointless thread, please.

So is the statement this is a recent import based on truth?

I also have Bosnian relatives settled in Pakistan who consider themselves Pakistanis.

I have heard bad things about them

Nope. I get this from having seen hundreds of Muslim marriages in India.

Diyas are Hindu culture with no significance in any Muslim culture anywhere.

Hindu(Hinduism) is more about the region, the culture, traditions, linguistics, folklore, art and culture....than it is about a particular region. Many Indians have argued that Hinduism is not a religion...anyone living in Hindustan is Hindu...isn't it..

Mehndi, feet washing, hand prints on wall, Sholah Sringar, wedding dance, Diyas, marigold garland, etc are found in Indian weddings and is rooted to Hindu tradition
Pakistan has adopted all of the above and their weddings look strikingly similar to Hindu weddings than wedding practiced in other Muslim countries.

Pakistan was a part of India not long ago...so any cultural common grounds is not surprising...why is this so surprising. It depends on the region ...and not exactly religion.

Here lies your answer different marriage traditions of different regions
In SIndh and Punjab jhoomars were smaller and the chain was covered by hair or even if it wasnt it would be thin

The chains and jhoomers only got bigger

Diyas are Hindu culture with no significance in any Muslim culture anywhere.

Except for in Pakistan where they are used for decoration in every major city on religious occasions the trend is now being replaced by using artificial lights

Mehndi

Really?
Oh brother

Sholah Sringar, wedding dance, Diyas, marigold garland, etc are found in Indian weddings and is rooted to Hindu tradition

All these things have always been part of a large portion of what is now Pakistan

wedding practiced in other Muslim countries.

Well ofcourse different regions have different traditions how will i drill it in your head?
Even Christian Pakistanis have Mehndis and Barats

Jhulelal

It mentions Jhulelal quite clearly.

• Jhulelal (Hinduism), the Hindu water deity
• Jhulelal (Sufism), a title of Lal Shahbaz Qalandar (1177–1275), Muslim mystic of the Suhrawardy Sufi order

In the Hindi industry, Pakistanis make some headway because of their diction. The spoken language for the movies is technically Hindustani dialect. Indian actors and actresses - especially the star kids, for them English is the first language. Also, most of the Pakistani actors charge relatively lesser fees and as it is, they are usually playing a second lead. The Indian producers get well spoken actors for cheap and Pakistani talent gets exposure and they make more money then they would in Pakistan. It is business, nothing else.
