Joining hands against Shiv Sena's call to ban Pakistani artistes, Salman Khan has recently reiterated the point that art and entertainment transcends boundaries by pointing to the mass appeal of Pakistani dramas in India.

The 49-year-old actor said that art and politics shouldn't be mixed together and claimed that Indians love to watch each and every entertainment show, including popular Pakistani shows, reports the Express Tribune.

The 'Bajrani Bhaijaan' star added that if someone wants a Pakistani actor, who can portray a role better, nobody can put a constraint. Bollywood has a huge number of fans in Pakistan and earns a good share of income from the neighbouring country.

Actors, including Shah Rukh Khan and Siddharth Malhotra, are also supporting Pakistani actors in this issue.
