India broke ties for very obvious reasons and its not a situation on which a simple solution can be obtained.
But abroad, we look the same, have similar cultures (barring the majority religion and festivals) so what's the problem in a Pakistani portraying an Indian or vice versa? This is Hollywood, and as long as an actor looks and fits the part, it doesn't matter.
But yes, I would have preferred to see a better suited Indian actor play that role, one who would seem more 'Bollywood'y. That would be better representation and more accurate. Hrithik would have definitely nailed the role.
Till the time we don't have an actual Indian (Hindu, given the majority faith of the population) superhero in the MCU, we'll wait and watch. And I specify Hindu because we are getting Kamala Khan aka Miss Marvel already.
Marvel will not screw around with the Indian market, they've already witnessed the craze first hand when Chris Hemsworth filed in Ahmedabad and the Russos came for Endgame promos.
