Mumbai: Bollywood filmmakers have a reason to celebrate for it looks like a new territory is opening doors for them - Pakistan.
With comedy flick Welcome getting a positive response, now more and more distributors are releasing Hindi films in Pakistan.
The release of films like Awarapan, Goal and Welcome has shown that Pakistan may be finally working to lift its 1965 ban on Indian films.
After releasing the John Abraham and Arshad Warsi-starrer Goal in Pakistan, UTV is all set to release multi-starrer Race and Aamir Khan's Taare Zameen Par on march 28. Taare Zameen Par will be released without changes while Race will be edited slightly to make it acceptable for the Pakistan Censor Board.
If Pakistan opens as a free-flowing market for Bollywood films, it will open another big territory for the Hindi film industry. Right now, the two major overseas markets are only the UK and the US.
