Pakistani Actor Rabi Pirzada: Salman Khan, Bollywood Promoting Crime In Our Country

Darpan News Desk IANS, 02 Mar, 2017 12:00 AM
    After Saba Qamar, another Pakistani actress Rabi Pirzada has targeted Salman Khan and Bollywood movies.
     
    Looks like the actress intended to revive the Pakistani film industry which is apparently on the verge of extinction, since the audience of the neighbouring country prefers watching Bollywood films, but ended up targeting B-Town movies instead.
     
    Rabi claimed that Pakistan’s preference for Indian films has gradually been ruining its youth, who are completely forgetting their culture and traditions. “Every other film released in Bollywood happens to be about crime or some criminal activities, especially films of Salman Khan. My question is, what are Indian film-makers teaching the youth? 
     
    It seems like they are just promoting crime,” she stated. “There was a time when Pakistani cinema was at its peak, making films with moral lessons and plots highlighting social ethics. We were educating the society through our films but Bollywood has changed all of that.”
     
    The singer and actor explained that this is why she decided to join hands with Naseem. “We decided we will produce a story that carries a special lesson for Pakistani children,” Rabi said. “There is no shortage of talent in our country. Naseem is writing the script of this film himself and soon, the cast will be finalised as well.”
     
     
    Naseem Vicky echoed Rabi’s sentiments adding that Lollywood was once a great film industry that churned out some excellent films and actors. It suffered a slump over the last couple of decades but now that it has turned over a new leaf, the time is right to make a socially-aware film.
     
    “The revival of our film industry has started and Rabi and I wish it to flourish here in Lahore once again. There is a dire need for us to produce films that attract viewers and that is what we will try our best to do with our joint venture. 
     
    We will try to bring the audience back to cinema,” shared Naseem. “You see, while Lollywood might have come alive again, it is still yet to produce a feature film that sheds light on the Pakistani identity. I am hopeful that in the coming months, Lahore will become the hub of local film-making again,” he added.
