This show is based on a novel Bano and actually its about her journey ,her dreams to have her own homeland where we will all be living in harmony as brothers and all . And what hell she goes through where with some sikh woman help she reaches Pakistan . If thee are bad people then there are good people also religion or no religion . We also have hundreds of books written on Partition from our point of view . Have seen Pinjar written by Amrita pritam , then habve Khushwant sigh,s novel which also turned in to movie . That time it were more because of spreading rumors where mobesters took the advantage. You can feel Bano ,s pain where you can feel the thousands going through the same hell . If we make movies then its ok . Where patriotism comes in to all this . I love my country but love the humanity and have respect for every religion .
yes Dastaan can create controversy and haters will just get the opportunity to fan the fire . Why to go that way ? i watched this show being unbiased and found Bano to be a faceless person , who identified with the people who went through hell . What she got in the end that was more tragic . How her dreams are shattered ? How she was disallusioned and came to reality with thud on the ground . When she questions herself that this is the country i have dreamed of ? Where she was going to be raped by her own country fellow ? Its beautiful story with brilliant actors . FK is only an actor who played the part Hasan . Art should be out of boundaries whether its music , artists or other form of art .
It has best tried to degrade the Hindus and the Sikhs and have presented them as the rapists of high order when we already know what is the actual truth. Well, I don't want to bring religion in between. And I feel that this show should never be onaired in India as it has not only tried to denigrate our religion but also our country INDIA about which we feel extremely proud of. If this show is ever aired here, then there should be protest from every person living in India
Because this show is not about anti hindus but it is about Anti India. I hope all the comments that I read here are actually commented by a Paki and not an Indian. If any Indian thinks that this kind of pathetic show should be aired here, then shame on him/her who calls himself/herself an Indian. Sorry you aren't an Indian then and you don't love your country.
P.S - if you love Fawad Khan, then it's completely your choice. I don't have any objections as I too love the actor alot but loving him doesn't mean that we'll support a show which promotes hatred for India. Our country comes first and then some Fawad Khan. If you want to watch the romance between Hassan-Baano, then YT is available and all videos are uploaded there. You can happily watch it. If someday Fawad does bombing in India, then does it mean that you're going to justify his acts being an Indian? You're an Indian first.
