The Pakistani film 'The Legend of Maula Jatt', starring Fawad Khan and Mahira Khan, is set to release in India on October 2, 2024, marking the first Pakistani film screening in India in ten years. Despite its success and acclaim, the film's release has sparked significant backlash from Indian extremists and political parties like Maharashtra Navnirman Sena, who vow to prevent its screening. Many Indian fans also expressed resentment, citing political tensions and previous bans on Indian films in Pakistan, while some fans are excited about the release, advocating for art to transcend borders. The film, a remake of a 1979 classic, has already grossed over Rs 400 crore globally. The Indian Supreme Court recently dismissed a plea for a complete ban on Pakistani artistes, facilitating this release.
