THEY call it an “artistic bridge”, but in truth, art in the subcontinent has never quite known a boundary in the first place. The Indian Motion Picture Producers Association (IMPPA) decided not to work with Pakistani artistes. One of the members of the IMPAA, Aggarwal, implied that the decision was punitive, based on the fact that allegedly none of the Pakistani artistes had explicitly condemned the Uri attacks. The significance of the Indo-Pak artistic and artistic bridge is more than just economic. The enemy is the handsome Pakistani fellow with a goofy smile, who dances across the silver screen and makes your Indian family laugh.
