Hi Asif
Ok, got your point regarding language issues in india.
<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote><font size=1 face="Verdana, Tahoma, Arial" id=quote>quote<hr height=1 noshade id=quote>hey the last time i asked 'if pakis have cinema halls and whether u guys watch movies?" somebody ridiculed me saying "where do u think we live?? afghanistan!"<hr height=1 noshade id=quote></BLOCKQUOTE id=quote></font id=quote><font face="Verdana, Tahoma, Arial" size=2 id=quote>
Certainly didnt mean to ridicule, it was just a tongue in cheek statement. <img src=icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>
On the topic of movies, must say that our Pakistani movies dont fare much better in this regards, ie vis a vis the portrayal of india and indians.
As regards to the partying scene, its here alright but mostly in the form of private parties. Yes, there are a clubs here in Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad, but they all cater to a specific section of the society and access is mostly by invitation or contacts.
Other than clubbing, there are many other things to do in Pakistan. I would recommend that you visit Pakistan and spend a few months here to learn more about our recreational activites and lifestyle. I am sure that you'd enjoy your time here. We are the most gracious hosts. <img src=icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>
