Mahira Khan opens up on ban on Pakistani artistes and saying no to Indian web shows

Mahira Khan, who starred in Shah Rukh Khan’s Raees, recently talked about the ban on Pakistani artistes in Bollywood. She also opened up about turning down offers on Indian digital platforms as she was scared.

Mahira Khan, who made her Bollywood debut with Raees opposite Shah Rukh Khan in 2017, recently opened up about the ban on Pakistani artistes in the Hindi film industry. The actress also revealed that she was scared to sign Indian web series. But now, Mahira hopes to collaborate on Indian web projects as she says she has realised, 'you can’t let something that happened, which was political, affect your choices'. In an interview with Film Companion, Mahira Khan said about the ban, “I guess, having experienced it firsthand, it’s just sad. When I think about it I mean, we have all moved on. That’s what we do, if we don’t have this, we do something else. That’s what happens. But I feel like a great opportunity for the entire subcontinent to come together and collaborate was lost. I think it might happen again. Who knows?”
