As Kabir, Katrina and Saif entertained questions, things heated up when Saif was asked about the reaction of his Pakistani relatives on Phantom -- which seems like an anti-Pakistan movie from its trailer -- as earlier, Saif's Agent Vinod too was banned in Pakistan.
During the press conference, a journalist said that India is making movies that portray Pakistan as a terrorist country to which Kabir retorted saying that it's the negative mindset people have embraced that makes them think of Pakistan as a terrorist country.
According to the filmmaker both his movies, Bajrangi Bhaijaan and Phantom, do not bash Pakistan but promote harmony and 'people to people friendship'.
"We have a mindset that the terrorists -- who are doing things that are anti-India -- represent Pakistan. They don't represent Pakistan. That is the whole point of this film. That's the whole point of Bajrangi Bhaijaan," Kabir said.
He stressed that such extremist mentality should be eliminated to ensure 'people to people friendship'.
Kabir's words drew a shocking reaction from a journalist who started yelling at the film maker.
