Filmmaker
Jagmohan
Mundra's
latest
film
on
terrorism
Shoot
On
Sight,
has
been
banned
in
Pakistan.
But
Mundra
says
he
is
not
surprised,
"Yes
my
film
Shoot
On
Sight
has
been
banned
in
Pakistan
because
Pakistani
actor
Mikaal
Zulfikar
who
plays
Zaheer,
a
closet
-
terrorist
is
shown
to
be
from
there".
Pakistan
has
objected
not
only
to
the
actor
but
also
to
the
character
of
the
terrorist
being
from
Pakistan.
Mundra
is
quite
amused.
"In
a
dialogue
between
Naseeruddin
Shah
and
Om
Puri,
it
is
revealed
that
the
character
Zaheer
is
from
Pakistan.
The
Pakistanis
didn't
like
it," added
Mundra.
What
puzzles
Jagmohan
is
that
even
after
facing
several
problems,
Khuda
Kay
Liye
released
in
Pakistan.
"Khuda
Kay
Liye
had
Pakistani
actors
in
Pakistan
playing
fundamentalists.
The
only
thing
is
that
they
didn't
show
any
terrorism
related
violence.
They
only
showed
fundamentalism.
But,
Shoot
On
Sight
doesn't
spare
the
audience.
It
shows
the
violent
underbelly
of
fundamentalism.
The
Pakistanis
didn't
like
that,"
said
Mundra.
