..and they’re complaining?
Pak actress says fatwa issued against her — A Fatwa? Geez, it’s just a movie!! HELLO!
Certain film stills of Meera smooching Ashmit Patel were circulated during the Kara film festival in December last year.
“After that I began receiving calls from a man called Sher Khan who would abuse me and told me that he has issued a fatwa against me in Pakistan and that if I go back there, he will have me killed,” she says.
“They asked me how I could have kissed a Hindu?” she said. “They said why do you show your legs to Hindustan, show them in Pakistan. They don’t want me to work here,” she added.
Meera, a popular actress in Pakistan, says she did not raise the matter earlier as she was afraid that film producers may avoid working with her due to the controversy. after over a month of shuttling between Mumbai, Dubai and London, she says she wants to go back home.
They just don’t get along. I guess you have to be one or the other to get it. Pakistan does have the rabid Islamism to deal with though. Hindu are no better when it comes to such matters though. In the movie “Fire”, the suggestion was made that women could find comfort in other women. What happened? Theatres got trashed. Bloody riots over a movie. In India. What’s going on here?
Um, didn’t they issue a fatwa when she got those implants! A crime against Allah, really.
