India-Pakistan conflict hits shared love of film, music
"I grew up watching Bollywood. We have same traumas, we have same stories," says Pakistani film critic While conflict raged between the powerful militaries of India and Pakistan, a battle was also fought on the cultural front lines despite years of shared love for films and music. The deadly fighting in early May — the worst in decades — affected artists previously untouched by animosity between their leaders. Ali Gul Pir, a Pakistani rapper and comedian with a huge Indian following, released a song years ago mocking Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. A young boy walks past a film poster, Love Guru, featuring Pakistani actress Mahira Khan, inside a cineplex in Lahore. AFP While he was spared consequences then, in May his YouTube channel and Instagram profile were blocked in India. "Indians now recognise that the digital space serves as a bridge between Pakistanis and Indians, and they seem intent on severing that connection," Pir told AFP. Former cricket stars pose with Chief Minister of West Bengal Mamata Bannerjee ahead of the start of the World T20 match between India and Pakistan at The Eden Gardens Cricket stadium. File / AFP The collapse in bilateral relations was caused by a deadly April attack on tourists in Jammu and Kashmir, which New Delhi blamed on Islamabad. Pakistan denied the allegation and, after tit-for-tat diplomatic retaliation, their militaries fought for four days before a ceasefire was reached. Pakistan's pop singer Annural Khalid sings inside her studio in Lahore. AFP The conflict hit the music industry for the first time, with Pakistani singer Annural Khalid also remembering how her Indian following dropped off. "Delhi was my top listening city before the ban," said Khalid, who has 3.1 million monthly listeners on Spotify. "I suffered a great loss in the audience" from India, she told AFP. Shehzad Ghias, a Pakistani social media influencer, speaks with Sajeer Shaikh, a Pakistani film critic and content creator, during his podcast in Karachi. AFP "Listeners were deprived of content because music was turned into something it is not," Khalid added. The conflict also scrubbed out some prior exchanges, such as the soundtrack of the 2017 film "Raees" on Spotify in India. It now shows only Indian actor Shah Rukh Khan, without his Pakistani co-star Mahira Khan. 'The same traumas' With Pakistan producing just a handful of movies each year under strict censorship rules, Bollywood has always proven popular among viewers. "I grew up watching Bollywood. We have the same traumas, we have the same history, we have the same stories," said Pakistani film critic Sajeer Shaikh. Pakistani actors and directors have for decades seen making it to Bollywood as the ultimate recognition. Sunny Deol, Ameesha Patel (L) attend the promotion of their upcoming Indian Hindi-language film 'Gadar 2' at the India-Pakistan Wagah border post. AFP But this month, Indian star Diljit Dosanjh announced his latest movie, "Sardaar Ji 3," which features four Pakistani actors, would be released "overseas only," after New Delhi banned Pakistani content and artists from productions. "Abir Gulaal," a love story starring Pakistan's Fawad Khan and Indian actor Vaani Kapoor, was scheduled to hit Indian cinemas on May 9 but the release was postponed. Even some in the industry who had previously backed the cross-border artistic trade changed their tune last month. "Everything should be banned... cricket, films, everything," said Indian actor Suniel Shetty, who has a big fan following in Pakistan. A man looks at a film poster, Love Guru, featuring Pakistani actress Mahira Khan, outside a cineplex in Lahore. AFP He starred in the 2004 movie "Main Hoon Na," which subtly promotes peace between India and Pakistan. "It's something really unfortunate about politics, creating that rift and putting boundaries around art," said Dua Zahra, assistant manager at Warner Bros South Asia's music label in Pakistan. 'Let's just make art' As part of its measures in the wake of the Kashmir attack, New Delhi's ban on some Pakistani YouTube channels included private broadcaster HUM TV. The channel, which says around 40 percent of its viewers are from India, simply told its fans to use a VPN to continue watching. A Pakistani vendor poses for a photograph with pirated copies of Indian Bollywood film 'Raees' at his shop in Karachi. AFP Since Modi took office more than a decade ago, many Indian critics and filmmakers have warned that Bollywood is now increasingly promoting his government's Hindu nationalist ideology. While the conflict has created divisions on the cultural scene, there are signs that the trade will endure. Over a month after the ceasefire, three Indian films were in the top 10 on Netflix Pakistan, while the top 20 trending songs in India included two Pakistani tracks. Pir, the rapper and comedian, vowed to "bridge gaps." "Let's not make war, let's just make art," he said. "Let's just not bomb each other." Agence France-Presse
