The latest Bollywood release #Pathan is the new trending topic probably in #India and #Pakistan. The movie might be some cliche, but somehow attracted the huge number of people, who appreciated the film, starring @ImsrkShah, a well known super star from Bollywood in India 1️⃣
The reason for being attracted & love towards the movie is the concept of the dignified character of Pathan. The Pathans are the nation, living in some part of Pakistan and Afghanistan, where the whole generation grown up in the violent shadow of the Afghan jihad & terrorism 2️⃣
This nation has always been a victim of stereotypes in the media of Pakistan. Pashtuns have been depicted as janitors, cobblers, porters, terrorists & even homosexuals in Pakistani movies. Infact, the dramatizations of Pashtuns have been aesthetically hostile than socially 3️⃣
After Pathan movie in india, the Pakistani cinema should learn from Bollywood. The Pashtuns are not what has been portrayed in the cinema of Pakistan. Pashtuns are a nation with rich cultural tradition, literature, hospitality, pride & political struggle for peace in the world4️⃣
We are the nation, who playing an active part in the development of the country by contributing their services in all possible fields. Being a Pashtun, i am thankful to the indian film industry and especially Shahrukh Khan for projecting a better image of Pashtuns to the world5️⃣
