According to an audience member, the actors from Pakistan can't work in the Indian industry anymore, and the same goes for the Indian actors.
He said, "Now we have a platform like Saudi Arabia where we can jointly do films; I would love to sign you for a film. Would you be willing to work with the Pakistani team along with your team in Saudi Arabia?"
Following the triumph of "The Legend of Maula Jatt, Kapoor praised the Pakistani film industry, stating,
"Of course, sir. I think there are no boundaries for artists, especially for arts. Many congratulations to the Pakistan film industry for (The Legend Of) Maula Jatt. It is one of the biggest hits we have seen in the last few years. Of course, I would love to."
Amid escalating terror threats and attacks from the neighboring side, the involvement of performers from the Pakistani film industry in the Indian film industry has sparked controversies in recent years.
The MNS party, led by Raj Thackeray, has warned against the release of Maula Jatt in India. Ameya Khopkar, head of the MNS media wing, promised to halt the film's release in India at any cost.
