Bollywood's former diva Madhuri Dixit may have failed to impress her Indian fans with her comeback film Aaja Nachle , but she seems to be Pakistan International Airline's best bet for keeping passengers entertained.
"Madhuri Magic", a show on the "dhak dhak" girl, is being aired for PIA passengers flying to Saudi Arabia and the UAE.
The show introduced last month will be on till October. Apart from Madhuri, PIA passengers flying to Dubai, Saudi Arabia and the US can tune into a special show titled "Dil Ki Baatein" on Rani Mukherjee .
Madhuri also features in the PIA in-house entertainment magazine, which has a write-up on her. But that's not all. On some flights, Bollywood buffs can also watch film award ceremonies and stage shows by top Indian actors.
Popular Bollywood songs some of which are "top choices" of Pakistani celebrities -- are also played on the flights.
Pakistanis, including their Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani, are huge Bollywood fans. Gilani, an ardent fan of Aishwarya Rai and Shahrukh Khan , was presented a box-full of DVDs of Ash's films by the Indian External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee when he visited Islamabad in May.
Bollywood films were banned on PIA some years ago. Airline officials said there is a proposal to allow screening of Bollywood films on some long distance flights to Europe and America, but the in-house entertainment magazine did not list any Indian films in its schedule for August to October.
