Human relationships are greater than politics. That’s what actor Swara Bhaskar has learned after two ‘memorable’ visits to what she once thought was ‘enemy territory’ but where, after two visits to Pakistan, she was showered with warmth, hospitality and free chai and samosas for being an Indian.
Her first visit to Pakistan was in 2005 with a friend. It was, as she describes, “two college
girls who just decided to liven up their lives by visiting enemy territory.”
“I think that trip taught me that people are always more important than some policies or actions of their government,” Swara told IANS, post her second visit last month. This time,
she went there for ‘work.’
