Emphasising on how important it is to have more of collaborations and co-productions between Indian and Pakistan, Kabir added, "We should be welcoming talent from all over the globe. This is a sign of mature country and it enriches talent of our own country. The more the people will meet, there will be more warmth and friendship. So, any suchKarachi episode should not allow change our perception about Pakistan or Pakistani actors."
