A few years ago, when the prospect of going to Bollywood seemed possible, it went Haywire for the Pakistani artists, some were already being signed up for Bollywood Movies, the best actors started waiting for their turns, some started releasing statements about how it would be an honor to go and work fro Bollywood, but others; a very few of them, had reservations. Shaan is one of those, he has always advocated the need for patriotism, that the actors should stay in their country and help flourish their own Industry. When Mawra went to India, Shaan and Hamza Ali Abbasi were two people who roared with anger, soon followed Saba Qamar, Fawad and Mahira..
Ali Zafar is one of the gems of Pakistan, being a phenomenal singer and equally skilled actor. He has been starring in Bollywood movies since 2010. After the moderate box office hit Tere Bin Laden, Zafar has bagged a lead role in a Yash Raj movie, Mere Broither Ki Dulhan, starring opposite Katrina Kaif and Imran Khan. Soon his list had Chashme Badoor,Total siyapa and Kill Dill
