Ali had taken his nephew and nieces for a matinee show of ‘Lucknow Central’ last week. As others got up during the tiol Anthem, he straightened up as a mark of respect. Towards the end, he heard a few men at the back say, ‘Saamne ek Pakistani baitha hai (A Pakistani is sitting in front)’. Ali did not take up the issue with the magement of the multiplex, nor does he plan to file a complaint. He, however, wants to initiate a dialogue on the issue.
