    Ali Zafar Shares His Experience Of Working In India

    Pakistani actor Ali Zafar has gained quite a lot of popularity with films like Kill Dill and Total Siyappa. His songs like 'Sun Re Sajaniya' and 'Madhubala' have done well in India too. In an interview with a leading daily, he got candid about how he felt while working in India and also opened up about Uri attacks in Jammu and Kashmir.

    According to the daily, the 37-year-old singer-turned-actor felt really conscious while working in India because of the fact that it is not his home country. He said, "While I was working in India I was very conscious of the fact that this is not my country. Luckily, I only had two days of filming left. The Indian media instantly started thrashing Pakistan but on the ground level nothing changed, things were still pretty normal for me."

    He also revealed that his brother, Danyal was about to debut in Bollywood through one of the Yash Raj Films, which was put on hold because of the Uri attack. "My own brother Danyal was there. He'd been there for two months prepping for a film with Yash Raj. He was being launched by them. He was going to start filming in a week. My film Dear Zindagi was about to come out. Initially when this happened, one didn't know what to make of it and when it was escalated to that level, I sat back and pondered [over it]," noted Zafar.

    Pakistani artists including Fawad Khan and Mahira Khan were also forced to leave India after the attacks at Uri in Jammu and Kashmir. The actor believed that this fallout was completely different from what happened last year after the Uri attacks. Ali also feels that the whole scenario changed after the 2008 Mumbai attacks.
