At a recent press meet in Chandigarh to promote his next Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar, Ranbir Kapoor was asked about his statement regarding his being open to doing Pakistani films. Answering the question, the ‘Rockstar’ actor said, “I think yeh thoda mera statement misconstrue ho gaya tha. I had gone for a film festival & there were a lot of Pakistani filmmakers asking me this question, you know, ‘If you’ve got a good subject would you do it?’ So, I didn’t want it to be controversial in any way.”

Ranbir Kapoor continued, “I don’t think itni bhi badi controversy hui. But, for me, films are films, art is art. I have worked with Fawad (Khan) in Ae Dil Hai Mushkil. I have known a lot of artists from Pakistan. Rahat (Fateh Ali Khan) & Atif Aslam are such great singers who used to contribute to Hindi cinema. So, cinema is cinema. I don’t think cinema sees boundaries.” However, he concluded by saying, “But, of course, you have to respect art but at the same time art is not bigger than your country. So, anybody who is not on good terms with your country your first priority will always be your country.”
