He further requested the Indian cultural ministry to officially establish Arth 2 as the first Indo-Pak venture, allow its release in India and make it a cultural landmark for peace. “It is high time we start giving love, care and respect to each other’s work by owning it,” he added.

Shaan also thanked Indian filmmaker, Mahesh Bhatt for all his support. “A good human and true visionary as his encouragement for the first Indo-Pak collaboration is clearly visible,” he said.



The music and promo launch of the film will be held in August, 2014, in Pakistan. The film is starring, Shaan Shahid, Humayun Saeed as Kalbhoshan, Humaima Malick and Uzma Hasan. It is expected to release in 2015.

Some questions for Shaan:

The producer, director, actors, scriptwriters of this movie are all Pakistani- so ow is this is aN Indo-Pak joint venture?

Even if this movie was a joint venture, by that loic surely Zinda Bhaag who had an Indian director and an I dian actor are also joint collaborations?

Has Indian government banned any movies comin from Pakistan? Please list names. If you are unable o find distributors for a movie - that is not the same as banning a movie. Indian culture ministry has not sopped Pakistani talent from seeking a market in India.

It is okay for you to seek the Indian market for your movie but fellow Pakistanis who seek the Indian market for their talent are to be criticized?

Another Pakistani hypocrite at his best. The same guy was bashing another Pakistani actor for being "unpatriotic" as he was working in Indian movies. Now this Mr. Two timing have balls to call upon Indian government to allow his movie in India. Pathetic.
