'Jawani Phir Nahi Ani 2' cast promotes message of Indo-Pak peace in heartfelt post

People on both sides of the Indo-Pak border have spent 72 years in strained ties. While the two countries celebrate their Independence Day just a day apart, different artists have come together to spread the message of peace.

In a recent attempt to improve relations, the cast of Jawani Phir Nahi Ani 2 and a UAE based radio channel, City 1016 came together for a heartfelt picture, shared by the film's leading lady, Mawra Hocane.

"Here’s a little something we did to foster Love between India & Pakistan . A City 1016 & JPNA2 initiative for 14th & 15th of August! Happy Independence Day to my neighbours, May we all prosper hand in hand," wrote the 25-year-old star, who marked her debut in Bollywood with the Harshvarden Rane-starrer Sanam Teri Kasam.

And Twitterati is lauding this initiative.

I must tell that there is love and harmony between these two countries but media and politian change project it differently.
