NEW DELHI: The Jackky Bhagnani - Arshad Warsi starrer Welcome to Karachi has become the first film to officially travel to Pakistan for movie promotion.

The cast and crew have been invited by the Pakistan Government for this purpose.

The movie is produced by Vashu Bhagnani. A source close to the project said, “It’s quite a big achievement not just for Bollywood but for the entire country. Since the film has Karachi word mentioned in the title and talks about the relations between India and Pakistan, the Pakistan government may have come up with the idea to promote the movie in Pakistan.”

Bhagnani added, “I’m very happy that Welcome To Karachi is the first film to go to Pakistan for film promotion. I’m highly obliged with the Pakistan government to invite us for our film promotion in Pakistan. It’s not just making Bollywood proud but also our country. I’m looking forward to travel to Pakistan along with my movie cast and crew.”
