Currently the Relations between Pakistan and India have been complex, because of that Pakistani artists are banned from working in India and Bollywood movies are banned in Pakistan.
The famous Pakistani singer Rahat Fateh Ali Khan is on the international spree and had concerts going on in different countries, the singer performed in United Kingdom, Singapore, Europe and he was supposed to perform in the United States and Canada in October 2019 but sadly gets cancelled because of the Federation of Western India Cine Employees.
“We have already given our directive that no Indian artist/singer/dancer/anchor/performer and last but not least, the promoter would work with [Pakistani] nationals and [Pakistani] artists in view of the current alarming situation between the two countries.”
“It is, therefore, our humble request to both of you to immediately cancel the above shows to maintain the dignity and honor of your country. You are. India, for which you should be proud,” the notice added.
The promoters have no choice left! If they don’t follow the directives given by the Federation then it will create more problems for them to work in future.
