I have seen many Pakistanis say they dont care for stars. But I find the opposite. Pakistanis are crazier for stars than Indians are. Here is one lady writing who worked in Pakistan about the BW craze among Pakistanis.

The book chronicles the Pakistani lifestyle, offering deep insights into the average Pakistani mindset. Their obsession with Bollywood makes for a hilarious read. Were you ever asked to share your experiences of meeting stars?
Unfortunately, I don't know any Bollywood stars but yes, people love Indian films which run to full houses, never mind the quality, and filmy gossip on which I am equally low. So when the Karachi press club delegation visited Mumbai, high on the agenda was meeting Aamir Khan, which they did and it was a lifetime experience for all of them, much to my amusement.
Even this forum and SM I have seen some absolutely crazy BW fans from Pakistan. I wont take names but most know who they are. I can only conclude Pakistanis are crazy about BW and dont care for home grown stars.
