The “Maqbool” actor is promoting the Pakistani movie “Actor in Law” along with lead actors Fahad Mustafa and Mehwish Hayat.
Enthralling his fans, Puri said this was his sixth visit to Pakistan.
The future of Pakistani film industry was “very bright”, he added.
“Actor in Law” is about an aspiring actor (Mustafa) who succumbs to pressure from his father (Puri) and becomes a lawyer. The Urdu movie, directed by Nabeel Qureshi, is set to release on September 13.
Says the guy who is on his ‘sixth visit’ to Pakistan to promote his movie!! This proves what every self-respecting Bharateeya knew all along – The Bollywood intellectuals have a clear agenda to trivialize the threats of terrorism and mislead clueless Indians into believing that there is no such thing called terror!! They would tell you how Pakistan is a wonderful place and terrorism has no religion. Congress-Bollywood alliance is one of the most dangerous ideological challenge India faces today.
This reminds me of a very famous quote by Lenin on the greediness of capitalists – “The Capitalists will sell us the rope with which we will hang them”.
