The love story of Pakistani national Seema Haider, who came to India for her boyfriend Sachin Meena, is now taking a cinematic turn. Their journey will be portrayed in the upcoming film 'Karachi to Noida,' produced by Amit Jani of Jani Firefox.

Auditions have commenced for the movie, and Seema might step into acting herself. Additionally, speculation surrounds Seema's potential role as an Indian RAW agent in the film 'A Tailor Murder Story,' based on a Udaipur murder case.

Last week, it was confirmed that she auditioned for the role. Amidst these developments, Ameya Khopkar, the President of MNS (Maharashtra Navnirman Sena) Cinema Wing, expressed concerns, vowing not to tolerate such incidents in Maharashtra. Pakistani individuals working in the Indian film industry are also under scrutiny.

“Pakistani citizens have no place in the Indian film industry, we stand firm on this stance. Seema Haider, a Pakistani woman, is currently in India. There were even rumours that she is an ISI agent. For some fleeting fame in our industry, they are trying to turn Seema Haider into an actress. How can these traitorous producers not feel ashamed? Put an end to this immediately, or be prepared for resolute action from MNS,” Ameya Khopkar tweeted in Marathi.

Amit Jani has been receiving death threats since the announcement of both the Seema-Sachin and Kanhaiyalal films. Now, the MNS has also adopted an aggressive stance on this matter, sparking intense discussions.
