Pakistan denies Visa to Anupam Kher for Karachi Lit Festival

Veteran actor Anupam Kher has claimed that he has been denied a Pakistan visa for his visit to Karachi for a Literature Festival for the second time. A Pakistani diplomat, however said that he has “not submitted” any visa application.

Anupam Kher further clarified although he himself did not submit the visa application, the organisers had did that on his behalf. While 17 others, including Salman Khurshid and Nandita Das were granted visa, Kher was denied because of anti-Pakistan and pro-Kashmiri Pandit stand.
