Pakistani actress Meera, trapped in the controversy over a
kissing scene in a Bollywood movie, has said that she is a victim of conspiracy
hatched by her enemies.

She, however, expressed confidence that her fans back home were unfazed by the issue.
Meera’s first Indian production “Nazar” with Indian actor Asmit Patel will hit theaters in June. The actress, who entered films in 1995 and has starred in nearly 70 films, has never given a kissing scene before.
Censors forbid kissing in Pakistani films.
“I was expecting some controversy because there are some people in Pakistan who do not want me work in India. All these were their ill-doings. Till today they do not want me work in Indian films,” Meera told reporters here on the sidelines of a product promotional tour in the city.
She had earlier alleged that she was receiving death threats from Islamic fundamentalists after media reports splashed news of her being fined by the government. Islamabad has however denied reports.
Though India’s films are readily available in video stores across Pakistan and are watched by millions on cable television, they are officially banned in theatres.
Meera’s second Indian venture, “Lal Haveli”, portrays a Muslim dancing girl and a Hindu lawyer who fall in love in Rawalpindi, but are torn apart by partition.
