Bollywood actors Ayushmann Khurrana and Sara Ali Khan traveled to the Wagah-Attari border to market their upcoming movie titled Udta Teer, which critics describe as anti-Pakistan propaganda.
Global backlash and criticism already surround the new Bollywood project due to its anti-Pakistan storyline, with possible bans looming in multiple nations right before its debut.
The plot of Udta Teer centers on a Pakistani intelligence operative who suffers memory loss following an accident and starts thinking he is an Indian counterterrorism official.
International distribution has also hit a significant roadblock. Nepal's Central Film Censor Board blocked public screenings of the movie prior to its planned October 23 premiere, pointing to national film regulations without specifying exact scenes.
While Ayushmann Khurrana and her co-star Sara Ali Khan tried to pitch their movie at the Wagah-Attari border, they struggled to reach supporters because local loudspeakers blasted well-known Coke Studio tracks.
Atif Aslam performing Taj-e-Dar-e-Haram overpowered the speakers and drowned out the performers. Footage of the event spread widely online as users praised the witty stunt pulled by the Pakistani DJ.
