Ali azmat who was the lead singer of Junoon also admitted that when dealing with bhaarteez they do expect you to say anti Pakistan stuff.
Well, demonstrated here. As long as you continue uttering anti-Pakistan rhetoric and praising India.. you get the thanks by the dozens.
Do anything to the contrary and you invite the wrath of jingoism deluxe.
But then that is the psyche of the nation.. an Indian can say that India has problems.. but lets see you dare to make the very same statement even if you copy his exact statement.. they will come up with ridiculous defenses that did not exist when they were discussing it among themselves.
However, this is a phenomenon of collective India..
Single out an individual.. in private.. and see him/her open up in true colors about their country.
With regards to Pakistan, the collective Indian psyche needs a bogeyman.. a reliable , sure-shot "we are better than them" gauge to make themselves feel better on those days things dont go well.
We cant all say this without turning to ourselves, after all.. we too have a collective psyche of bringing up distorted stories of the past to defend the present..or finding a scapegoat for all our sins.
Junoon has been under attack earlier from the N-League due to their alliance with the Mullah's and their dislike for the rise of the pop and rock from the early 90's..after all.. "down town princes" is about a visit to the diamond market.
It was the very same Junoon group that sang "yaroon yehi dosti hai" with that bus on the plank while Pakistani troops went into Kargil. So Nawaz's dislike for Junoon is a bit exaggerated and has more to do with Salman Ahmed's current support for PTI.
