Summary Saif considers the ban on Pakistani artists as hypocritical in nature.

MUMBAI (Daily Dunya) - Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan is known for his blunt remarks which sometimes have turned out into a misfortune for him. This time the actor expressed his views over the ban on Pakistani artists and took no exception at all.

While talking to Indian Express during an interview, Saif Ali Khan felt that Pakistani artists such as Fawad Khan are exotic because they are from a ‘forbidden land’.

“Make up your mind, make it a law if you want to. (Laughs) Also, there is a sense of exotic to them because they are from the forbidden land, like Fawad Khan. If they were from India, that would remove that extra glamour from them. Maybe they are just usual but there is a Mata Hari sense of a foreigner about them,” he said.

Saif considers the ban on Pakistani artists as hypocritical in nature.

“I can understand the ban. On one hand you are playing nice, casting each other in movies and playing cricket, and on the other hand they cut five people’s heads --- who are ‘they’ though, I don’t know. We don’t know how much to believe. A lot of what happens between the two countries is covert, there are a lot of underhand dealings and trade etc,” he pronounced.
