Where is that Owaisi-Cuck savior of Gangu Muslims?
Sad part is Prince Khalid & Co., fund and invest in Fox News, etc., so these people have no legs to stand on when they talk about Islamophobia. It's like a murderer talks about taking action against crime.
It's going to get a lot worse before anything gets better -- not just in India but around the world Muslims are being pushed to the corner. The world as we know it is in silent agreement with the treatment of Muslims, that's a fact only the blind would ignore it.

Yes Pak has faced it's fair share of problems...and there will be problems going forward too...however u must consider what the topic of the discussion is...which is TWO NATION THEORY.
U could bring in things like religious extremism, shia/sunni tensions, and ahmadi stuff but that's like comparing apples and oranges. It's like if u were telling me about Nehru's "secular united India" concept and I started bringing up India's farmers committing suicide. Jinnah wasn't trying to solve the problem of shia/sunni conflict...he was trying to safeguard the rights of Muslims that were soon about to become a minority...and would've been led by a Hindu majority. In that regard I think his solution was a realistic one while the one backed by Maulana Kalam was idealistic.
Even if let's say for argument's sake...that a "united secular India" could work where everyone lived in harmony...
...from where things are right now in India...can u see a way back to the utopia that never was?
U can't expect me to speak for others nor do I have the power to guide their actions. If some Pakistani watches that crap then yes indeed he is a small part of it...however I do not watch such stuff(or any Bollywood movies for that matter).
Even if we wanted to...Pakistan cannot stop India(or any country for that matter) from making movies...whatever the propaganda shown in it. In the west(I live here)...Muslims are shown in a bad light in general...and yet nothing can be done about it. Any condemnation falls on deaf ears bcuz the ppl are much less interested in reading something like
..."At the UN, Jordan condemned the Islamophobic nature of the program that aired in the US"...instead they would be watching that program on something like Fox News.
Then there are things like freedom of speech that protect these kinds of Islamophobic media outlets from any legal actions...here's one really good example below...I request u watch both parts...they are not too long and very informative.
Other than that the only option left would be to issue threats to forcefully end something...which I do not condone. Not only would it not solve anything...it would make Muslims look bad. All the Islamophobes would be like "see that's what Muslims are like".
Therefore I don't think Pakistan...or Pakistani Muslims can put a stop to Indian propaganda or any country's propaganda. At best it could be a financial boycott at the country level...but that too wouldn't matter much since their audience is largely Indian. Even with just an Indian market these Bollywood producers will remain profitable.
TBH a large amount of ppl easily believe what they see...the ones who are better informed...tend to be that way bcuz they take their time to study/research on their own. This is from first hand experience of living a large part of my life in US. An average American doesn't have the faintest clue about Muslim countries, the varied cultures(Indian Muslims, Arabs, Persians, Turks, etc.), Islam, the complex geopolitics of the middle east, etc. They are told something simple like "we(US) are gonna go kill terrorists that want to harm America"...and the ppl simply support it.
Bollywood films don't really have much influence outside of Asia(India, Pak, Bangladesh, Nepal, etc). For the average person outside of that region...their Islamophobic views will remain(or dissipate) regardless of bollywood films...due to other factors like their own understanding and the media in their respective region.
To summarize...
1) Pakistan alone cannot control what propaganda India or other countries spit out.
2) Bollywood movies and other Indian propaganda sells like hotcakes in India...and that market is large enough for it to be profitable.
3) Islamophobia outside of the subcontinent is largely due to other factors and Bollywood films hardly count in playing a part in it.
Muhajirs may have tried to assimilate early on...but that is no longer the case. What u maybe referring to is just idiotic propaganda of MQM to gather support. They have long tried to play the Muhajir card for their own influence and power.
Tell me what would be the concept of a Muhajir in today's Pakistan? A "muhajir" by definition is someone who has done "hijrat" from one place to another. It applied to the ppl who migrated from India to Pakistan...that was in 1947...and then continued afterwards for a little while. That was roughly 70 years ago...a majority of those muhajirs are no longer with us...even a newborn who was brought to Pak by his parents would be an old man in his 70s today. The progeny of those muhajirs are by definition no longer muhajirs(since they are no longer migrants). So I don't understand exactly what the issue is with that other than just typical greed/political power BS.
Sad part is Prince Khalid & Co., fund and invest in Fox News, etc., so these people have no legs to stand on when they talk about Islamophobia. It's like a murderer talks about taking action against crime.
That made sense... I would only say "To each his own". Your ancestors believed in Jinnah and our's believed in Maulana Azad...
You will stick to your ideas of Pakistan with greater grit because of the present situation in India and many Indian muslims are now forced to question the idea of secular India. Hope this shall pass away, the way you faced the bad phase in the early 21st century.
It's going to get a lot worse before anything gets better -- not just in India but around the world Muslims are being pushed to the corner. The world as we know it is in silent agreement with the treatment of Muslims, that's a fact only the blind would ignore it.
