Whenever India and Pakistan face off in a sporting arena, there is talk of it being a war. And when a player dies in the arena, it could really be the start of a war. That was the premise of a kickboxing story where an Indian athlete died in the ring, fighting a Pakistani adversary. His brother gave up his cricketing ambitions and trained to become a kickboxer so that he could take revenge. The talk of revenge did not go down kindly with the diplomats who were looking to reduce tensions between the two countries. In such a scenario, the return match was scheduled to be held in Pakistan. The venue wasn?t the Gaddafi stadium but it was still... Lahore.
Given the somewhat tense nature of our political ties, our social and cultural ties with Pakistan are very rarely humourous. Often sentimental but almost never satirical. Tere Bin Laden changed all that. Set in Karachi, it was the story of a down-and-out television reporter (Ali Zafar) who created a fake Laden video to get into limelight and fulfil his dreams of going to America. Needless to say, these things are never as simple as they are planned to be and soon we had a manic group of poultry farmer, travel agent, radio jockey and TV station owner caught up in an international conspiracy of catching the (then) world?s most wanted man. When we watched a movie like this one, we realised how similar India and Pakistan actually were.
