When it comes to the cross-country relations between India and Pakistan, they are always heated. Each time a Pakistani works in the neighboring country, it creates a disturbance. As far as Pakistanis are concerned, they like seeing Indian faces in the adverts, but it is the hatred from the other nation which makes us do otherwise.
We have seen a couple of Indian celebrities model for Pakistani brands before. Kareena Kapoor was the face for Faraz Manan’s collection for quite some time.

Speaking of which, in her comeback post-pregnancy shoot, Kareena Kapoor yet again models for another Pakistani, and this time it is Tena Durrani!

In a shoot which took place in Dubai, Tena Durrani made sure Bebo’s comeback was a complete killer. What makes this shoot even more interesting is how this is Kareena’s first commercial appearance after giving birth to her baby. Additionally, Tena experienced great pleasure while working with the Bollywood’s fashion icon!

“We’ve been meaning to strengthen our ties with partners globally and what better way to do it than with the leading Asiana wedding magazine based in the U.K. It was through an extensive collaboration between the relevant parties that we were able to sign Kareena for her first photoshoot after the birth of her son.” – said Tena in an interview with local publication.
On the other hand, Indian star Shilpa Shetty modeled for Pakistan’s Saira Rizvi in the same edition of Asiana Wedding Magazine!

With the shoot taking place in London, Saira felt that to resonate her brand, Shilpa was the perfect fit. Looking at the pictures of the shoot, we totally agree with Saira.

What makes these two photoshoots even more interesting is how the actors and the designers kept the political tensions aside and worked for something they all adore. While the politics may inflict negativity in the hearts of two arch rivals, public figures such as Shilpa Shetty and Kareena Kapoor alongside the designers Saira Rizwan and Tena Durrani are setting examples we need to see.
To spread love and peace, we need to take steps. Sure, these designers had the opportunity to hire any local, yet extremely talented models. However, irrespective of brand imaging, having two Indians in a Pakistani shoot itself sends a peaceful message we need to understand.
