'Even if I have kissed, what wrong have I done?'
Syed Firdaus Ashraf | February 24, 2005
Is it a big deal for a hero and heroine to kiss on screen? Well, if you are the Pakistani goverment, it certainly is!
In fact, an outraged Pakistani government has fined popular Pakistani actress Meera for kissing Ashmit Patel in her Bollywood debut, Nazar. The film is directed by Mahesh Bhatt's wife, Soni Razdan.
"A certain lobby in Pakistan is purposely tarnishing my name because I am doing a Bollywood film in India," Meera tells News Editor (Entertainment) Syed Firdaus Ashraf.
"I have come here as a peace ambassador and there is a particular lobby in Pakistan that cannot digest this fact."
Excerpts from the interview:
What is the fine the Pakistani government has imposed on you for doing the kissing scene in Nazar?
At the moment, I have no idea.
I have got a letter from the Pakistani government but it's currently at the Pakistani embassy in New Delhi. I don't know the details of the letter.
Right now, I am in shooting in Panchgani (a hill station near Mumbai).
I am very disturbed by this news. Whatever happened is very bad.
We are doing this film to promote Indo-Pak ties. People have neither seen the promos, nor the film, and they have started gossiping about the kissing scene. These are the people who are against Indo-Pak friendship, and they are targeting this film through me.
Do you think this outcry against you is to malign you?
I think some people in Pakistan are trying to destroy my image. But I don't know who they are. They are trying to make sure our film industries do not come together.
I will talk to the Pakistani high commissioner and the information ministry of Pakistan and clear my stand.
What is Nazar about?
Nazar is the first joint-production between India and Pakistan. I am a Pakistani passport holder, and the first Pakistani heroine to come to India and shoot for a [Indian] film. Those who are opposing me are saying Ashmit Patel is Hindu and I am Muslim. They have stooped to such a low level, and are sounding so stupid.
Mahesh Bhatt is a sensible filmmaker and he is one of the biggest intellectuals of South Asia. I am sure people know he will not get into anything like this.
As far as the film is concerned, it is a mystery. It is a positive subject and a film that will promote friendship between the two countries. There is no controversy in it.We just performed at a Sanjay Dutt show. In the same way, some Indian artists are going to Pakistan to perform. But a section of people don't like it.
What is the general opinion of the people in Pakistan about this issue? Are they positive about a Pakistani actresses working in India?
Very positive! In Pakistan, people tell me, 'Meeraji, go to India and work!'
Kissing scenes are becoming common in our film industry. Don't Pakistani heroes and heroines kiss on the big screen?
I don't want to talk about this. I don't want to get into a controversy. I am a positive girl, and don't want to talk negatively. If it becomes a serious matter, I will open my mouth. Now, I want to avoid controversies. I want to keep the friendship between the two countries intact.
