One of the most popular faces of Pakistan Mahira Khan has also appeared in Bollywood films opposite Shah Rukh Khan. The actress has recently opens up about her relationship with Bollywoood celebrities.

Mahira speaking about her relationship with Bollywood celebrities said, “I had the most amazing time working in India. I am still in touch with so many people and there’s a lot of love there. Unfortunately, we are easy targets, soft targets, whether it’s us here in Pakistan, whether it’s them there in India. Because we’re artists, and we’re connected by that thread of art, we actually get each other.”

She further added, “So we’re trying to look out for each other, more than anything. Even now, we are so careful with what we write on social media. It’s not that we don’t talk to each other. It’s not that we don’t wish each other on our birthdays. It’s not that we don’t meet each other in different countries. It’s not that – it’s just that we are actually not just protecting ourselves but protecting each other.”

The actress concluded, “Unfortunately, it’s politics, it’s not a personal thing. On both ends, until the time that scapegoats are needed, we will always be that… But let’s say that it gets better. Let’s say that there is someone in power who does not use us as easy targets. That would be lovely. Can you just imagine the collaboration? It would be lovely.” 

The actress was last seen in The Legend of Maula Jatt. The movie revolves around the legendary rivalry between Noori Natt, the brutal gang leader, and local hero Maula Jatt. The film stars Fawad Khan as Maula Jatt and Mukkho, respectively. Hamza Ali Abbasi plays Noori Natt, Humaima Malik plays Daro, Faris Shafi plays Mooda, and Gohar Rasheed plays Makha.  The story has been reimagined for a global audience by Lashari, whose debut 2013 film Waar broke box office records in Pakistan.
