According to the Times of India, after the Indian High Commission in Islamabad denied him a visa, Mohammad Abdullah tried to realise his Bollywood dream by hopping off the international border at Wagah on May 25.
He was taken into custody by Indian forces. During interrogation, the security officials found that the young man was a die-hard Bollywood fan and wanted to pursue an acting career in the Hindi film industry.

“When I was at the Wagah border, I saw an Indian soldier and went towards him to shake hand but jumped into the Indian territory,” he said.
