Pakistan & Netflix | Documentary on Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan | Film on Salam & Ahmadi Persecution

Описание: In this episode of New Wave Global, host Rabia Mehmood interviews Zakir Thaver, the film producer behind the acclaimed documentary on Pakistan's first Nobel Laureate, Abdus Salam. Salam, the second Muslim to win the Nobel Prize, was disowned in Pakistan due to his Ahmadiyya faith. Thaver discusses his ongoing projects, including a film on Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, the legendary Qawwali maestro from Faisalabad, and another on Adam Osborne, the inventor of the first portable computer.

Thaver shares the journey of creating Salam’s documentary, uncovering Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan's unreleased songs, and piecing together the Qawwali legend's life for the big screen. He also highlights the challenges of gathering archives for filmmaking and criticizes Pakistan Television Corporation for mismanaging its invaluable archival material. Additionally, Thaver talks about the potential of Pakistani filmmakers and drama creators and says Netflix is possibly sidelining Pakistani content in favor of India bias, and that India must not be the arbiter of all things Pakistan on Netflix.
