In an interview to the IANS, the Moor director was forthright and open about how he sees Bollywood films and the impact that they have on the Pakistani film industry. Jamshed Mahmood Raza, also known as Jami, said that when Pakistan banned Bollywood films way back in the 1970s, it harmed their own film industry, rather than India’s. -
From 1971, when we banned (Indian films), our industry was destroyed, not the Indian industry,” he siad. Jami also elaborated as to how both India and Pakistan were two similar countries with the same language, culture and traditions. Hence, the cultural impact was nothing but natural for both countries. “It’s very simple. We are cousins. We share the same language. We share the same songs. We had cinemas, but we were not making films. New cinemas came because of Bollywood. Once the cinemas started to emerge, the filmmakers were ready. We can’t make films if there’s no cinema to show it. Bollywood is still giving CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) to our industry,” he said. Despite all, Jami was also hopeful that there were better times ahead for the Pakistani film industry, as more and more cinemas were cropping up across the country and several musicians had also made their way back into the mainstream, after years of oblivion.भिडियो हेर्नलाई तलको बिज्ञापन हटाउनुहोस
