Watched #Homeland
Thread :
The series has Arabic, Pushto ,Hindi ,Persian & Urdu all messed up. On signboards . And in dialogues.
All pathans are dark skinned & there are women in saris in KPK . Also many African American walking around on the streets (the Islamabad scenes were shot in Cape Town ,South Africa)
#Islamabad in homeland and Islamabad in real
There is not a single luxury car on the roads of Islamabad,except the ones owned by CIA
Women & men speak Hindi in Meeranshah 🤷🏻‍♀️
There are Indian prints and sheets on walls in Islamabad’s medical college hostel rooms. And all students talk in Hindi,especially the (dark skinned) Pathan & his cousin. Men wear kurta pajama 🤷🏻‍♀️
There is always a call of prayer in the background when in Pakistan,no matter what time of the day it is. And ppl enter mosque with shoes on and ablution (wudu) is just about washing face & hands !
General store is called “store general Ahmed “ & camera shop is called “cameray kee dukaan “ 🤷🏻‍♀️
“GAME” in #Islamabad ? Btw, have never seen a car like this in the entire country .
So #homeland producers , do your research. Atleast get the language right. Next time you do a series with Pakistan in it , please ask me !
That’s all folks ....
