Ayodhya Has Changed Beyond Recognition

Описание: Anil Nakra is a Jaipur-based businessman, film critic, tabla player, and YouTuber with a deep love for Urdu—a passion he inherited from his elders. His affection for the language is so strong that his family and friends jokingly call him a "half-Muslim."

Despite this cultural affinity, he is disheartened by the rigidity he observes among many Indian Muslims. His ancestral roots lie in Piplan, a small town near Mianwali in Pakistani Punjab, for which he continues to feel deep affection and emotional attachment.
