India’s ban on Pakistani media and artists has dominated headlines. The Indian government imposed the ban after accusing Pakistan of orchestrating a false flag operation in Pahalgam. In that incident, unidentified individuals within Indian territory killed Indian tourists. India quickly blamed Pakistan, but the accusation later unraveled. An Indian Army General eventually admitted that the attack had been staged by India as part of a planned operation.
Following the incident, Indian authorities immediately canceled appearances and releases involving Pakistani artists, including Fawad Khan and Hania Aamir, whose films were scheduled to premiere soon. While a few artists initially attempted to side with India, most mainstream Pakistani actors openly voiced their disagreement with the ban.
Recently, several Pakistani celebrities mocked India’s decision to ban Pakistani artists. Hina Altaf, Imran Abbas, Yasir Hussain, Mishi Khan, Aijaz Aslam, Mashal Khan, and many others openly laughed at the ban through their social media posts. Here are some of their reactions:
