Film body appeals for total ban on Pakistani artists

The All Indian Cine Workers Association (AICWA) has asked Prime Minister Modi to ban Pakistani artists and companies from Indian streaming platforms.
They say seeing actors like Mawra Hocane and Yumna Zaidi feels hurtful to families affected by terrorism, especially after attacks like 26/11 and Pulwama.

TL;DR

Cutting cultural ties won't harm India: AICWA

AICWA argues that cutting cultural ties with Pakistan won't harm India's entertainment industry or economy.
They see this move as a way to honor Indian soldiers and point out that Pakistan already bans Indian content, so they believe it's only fair for India to do the same.
