Going Back to Pakistan: 70 Years After Partition | Witness
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 сер 2017
- "Before I die, I want to go back to where I was born." Krishan Kumar Khanna grew up just outside Lahore, Pakistan's second-largest city. After a childhood he remembers fondly, his life changed dramatically in August 1947.
As Britain left the Indian subcontinent, colonial planners hastily split it into Hindu-majority India and Muslim-majority Pakistan.
Khanna was forced to join one of the largest migrations in human history, as sectarian violence erupted and millions fled in both directions to save their lives.
He has dreamed of going back ever since and, after trying for several years, Khanna finally obtained a visa to return to Pakistan.
Despite deep tensions, he's determined to show that people in the neighbouring nations still have much more in common than that which divides them.

As a Pakistani I felt very emotional to see his story. Sir you are truly a person of a nobel character. Pakistan is yours too and you are welcomed here any time you want.
ahmedmujtaba007 but who will give her a assurety of not being killed or have to conversion...
ahmedmujtaba
,.At the time of partition those were your four fathers who killed Hindus and Sikhs living there....
Anuj ShrivastavaTM what about those families who were killed in Hindustan at the time of partition
right bro
Hey please contact me on this no. 9416976783.
I have to get some information for my grandfather. ahmedmujtaba007
His body migrated from Pakistan 72 years ago, but his heart still resides there...
*India
All this pain caused by religion
@Ęxtřəmé Hűñteŕ brother , you have too much hate in your heart and the thing you need to realize is that,all this hatred never solved anything .
@Ęxtřəmé Hűñteŕ shut up ok Pakistan was not created on the base of any hateness against any religion including Hindu religion
@@mohammadtila7746 well said ..... Hatered never solves anything
As a Pakistani, its secod time watching this vedio. Very emotional. No doubt we are different religion, different countries and different thoughts but our hearts are made of the same piece of meet.
Before Britishers india was spreaded away from kabul to burma india was one they divided our people killed our People's😭 looted all our wealth and they throw a borders between to families we will make again our old united incredible India good bye my bro
... & we all bleed red .. no matter where we were born or the colour of our skin. Sometimes we just have to sit face to face & talk together ... then we discover there's a lot we share in common ... & often very little difference between us.
9:42 " THE LAND IS THE SAME, THE PEOPLE ARE THE SAME " that line hit so hard. ❤❤ love to Pakistani and Indian friends 🇵🇰🤝🇮🇳
Yesss it’s like that song in veer Zara, my land is the same as your land 🥺
Love and Peace from INDIA ❤
This made me emotional.. my mom said that my grandpa was one of the people who helped his Hindu friends to cross the border and reach India safely.. never saw him but I m definitely proud of him

I'm a Pakistani girl and whenever my grandmother would tell me about partition , tears would come out of her eyes as she lost a lot of her relatives during coming to Pakistan . She was a little girl when she came to Pakistan and became a doctor here . I'm really curious what was her homeland there in punjab . Unfortunately, she passed away on 10th March 2020 . May her soul rest in peace . (Ameen) This man is really a legend .
Hi ! I have heard that my family was from Hisar Tehsil Lali village .
Sorry but I don't know a lot about like Indian states but thanks for telling .
@@rajnigarg5920 Thanks for recommending . I would love to visit if I ever come there( inshallah) .
Why is he a legend? Did he say a word about Quaid? Na however he mentioned Nehru.
It’s a drama which is called a Hindu darama
@@sadiakhan7718 Jinnah was responsible for partition. That's why
Peace
I'm a Pakistani. I can't stop my tears and cried after watching this video.This video is so heart touching. The main cause of hatred and all the problems is Britishers i.e. their policy was divide peoples and rule over subcontinent. They fought the peoples for their occupency. And the hatred is continue yet that was aggravated by British government at that time. There were peace and prosperity before the British government occupation. ✨✨ Hope for the best ❤️
love from India...take care guys and stay happy...
Hatred among the religions was already there. They just ignited the fire. This too can be debated as a large mass of people demanded a partition based on religion.
Very positive thinking my brother stay blessed
It is heart touching emotion. Words cant express it. Partition makes wounds to both d countries. After 75 years still unable to meet each other. All because of terrorism. If it is not supported by military or others , all are eagarly waiting for my brothers, sisters and all. It is a dream to all
The Real Truth is British aside by USA need country which supports their interest in South Asia so they created Pakistan.
A man who does not carry the history of the subcontinent only, but also the undivided love and harmony. May you live long, Krishna Sahib.
A legend has said " if you see two group of same land fighting with eachother understand that a British has passed over from history".
Truth
Absolutely correct "Britishers divide a united land into a two country hindustan and pakistan.
Really true
Rishabh Aryan and left the kashmir issue unsorted so both the countries may fight , and the result can be seen today both the countries are left behind in economy and see their countries emerging into the sky
Exactly bro
To everyone born decades later and behaving like a partition expert, it's very hard to understand the pain that people like this old man has gone through. Losing home, friends, family and living most of the life wondering what could've been. Everyone I know/knew from his generation has the same emotion.
As an honest and patriotic Indian, my sincere thanks to everyone in Pakistan for welcoming and making the trip happen for him.
Kaushal Singh feelings expressed in word
God bless you.
Kaushal Singh very well said bro
I agree with you 100%
man his eyes...
Kaushal Singh this is probably one of the most sensible comments I seen on this comments section
Throughout the story...my eyes were filled with tears listening to Bau Ji's emotions... made me recall, my mother used to tell me that in those days, my naana ji had to spend 3 days and 3 nights on a tree in fear of being killed from a mob chasing him on the way to home, then on 4th day a hindu gentleman and his famiiy came forward to help. They had hidden naanu's identity to save my naana ji....whosoever came in their house, they introduced my naana ji as their own son given with a name fake name of Aatma Ram. Few days later they dropped my naanu at home in dark. People never wanted divisions but Hunger of power and politics did so.
Ya bhai that's the toughest time for all
War only brings casualties and hatred ...
It's usually the greedy .. greedy for power & greedy for wealth ... & most politicians want at least one, but often both, even if they won't admit it. It's the rest of us who pay the price for their greed.
It breaks my heart that he wanted to stay for two more days but couldn't.
His younger brother didn't understand that his elder brother wasn't there to meet people or to see places....but to RE -LIVE those nostalgic memories that roam in his mind and subconscious .
I think he was more scared to stay another day there then re-living the childhood memories... Which I cannot say is completely wrong
@Truth Humanity yes he didn't wanted to.. He came for his brother
Sahana Biswas, our country is as safe as India nowadays so he really shouldn't worry that much
He said that because they have to renew the permission
@@1A_B_C1 yes that was also one of the reason.. But he was not enjoying like his elder brother was.. He even said he didn't wanted to come but he was coming for his brother... The wife of old man was scared too..
Same language
Same people
I am from Pakistan 🇵🇰 and I in my entire life never saw hate for any Indian from Pakistan.
We respect Indians.

Shukriya bhai❤️❤️
I am neither from pakistan nor from india but this brought tears in my eyes. The old man's passion, his little steps, the emotions!! Man! This is too good of a documentary. And yes, the partition did hurt many!
true dat by the search about hunza valley and swat valley you will know the truth
hunza valley and swat valley is the peace full area in Pakistan
Yes it did hurt brother.
Just reminded me of my grandfather. He was Pakistani Sikh. He kept longing for Pakistan until end of his life. He was also from Shaikhupura. I just realised and felt tiny bit of his pain and grief. I swear, when I was growing up there wasn't even a single day when he didn't talk about Pakistan or mentioned something about Pakistan and his friends there. I couldn't stop crying throughout the whole video. Wish these two countries can become one once again and may we can see end of this hate in politics and media that keeps putting nails in the coffin of the love to bury it forever. Thanks Aljazeera.
im also from sheikhupura
Abhishek Singh m also frm gujranwala but humare bare kashmir se the....apne kia horrible stories sunien kindly tell me
Punjab should have never been divided. Horrible decision and it also destroyed Kashmir.
Amardeep Singh we welcome all with love but it is not possible neither desirable to reunite.. rather we shoshoud have better relation and live like Canada and usa or European union. That is the model we should follow
But that can only happen after the solution of kashmir dispute. It's really not in interest of India to delay this matter any long. It.will be good for the whole region and.all countries involved to get out of this mad war tensions and resources wasted on defence and offence machinery. Rather making open borders and friendly relations will allow for using that money for education and health care. Infrastructure development etc. Peace is the way forward.
Same story of my Grandpa he was born and grew up in India but after partition he was migrated to Pakistan 🇵🇰.He always talked about his own house in India that was so emotional for all of us to listenend him. May Allah grant him Janna (Ameen).
It's so emotional it reminds me my grandfather.
Please do visit your ancestor's place. Love and Peace from INDIA ❤
From where did he came?
He left coz He wanted a muslim homeland not because Hindus threw him out there's a difference
❤️❤️❤️
@@okaygaurav are u stupid? He had no choice and was forced to leave.
It always make me very sad. I have heard my grandparents stories since I was a kid. My grandfather was brutally beaten by them and later when they thought him dead, left him on railway track and his intestines were literally out but by god's grace he was so brave and strong, he had only 5rs with him. He went to the hospital himself got his treatment done and later came to India and found his family. All the family members thought he was dead. Many of us may have stories so I thought why not share mine. :) Have a nice day
How long did he live after that?
Was your family a trading one too like most Khatris?

I am British-Jamaican watching from London . My heart is sad for this old man. His brother has no empathy with him. I'm glad he saw the land of his birth and re-lived some good memories of his younger days. Bless him.
Idk why I'm crying while I see this. He is one of us. You are us. This man is like my grandfather and he speaks just like my grandfather who left India in 1947 and has the same feelings for India.

Muhammad Ismail Rowther ब्रिटिश भारत मे मुस्लिम लीग पार्टी के Madras Presidency के बड़े नेता थे, जिसका जन्म वर्तमान तमिलनाडु तिरुनेलवेली जिले में वर्ष 1896 में हुआ था। वर्ष 1918 में Majlis-ul-Ulama (Council of Islamic Scholars) की स्थापना में महत्वपूर्ण भूमिका निभाई और 1918 में ही मुस्लिम लीग पार्टी में शामिल हुए।
वर्ष 1945 में Muslim league party की Madras Unit के president बने। मुहम्मद अली जिन्ना ने Muslim league ने 1946 के provincial assemblies elections ब्रिटिश भारत के मुसलमानों के लिए अलग देश पाकिस्तान की मांग को पार्टी manifesto में रखते हुए लड़ा था। वर्ष 1946 के provincial assemblies elections में मुहम्मद इस्माइल ने मुस्लिम लीग पार्टी की Madras Unit का president रहते मुहम्मद अली जिन्ना को मद्रास प्रेसीडेंसी की सभी मुस्लिम रिजर्व 28 सीटें जिताकर दी थी ताकि जिन्ना अलग इस्लामिक देश पाकिस्तान बना सके। 14 अगस्त 1947 को पाकिस्तान बन गया लेकिन आपने आज तक एक भी मद्रासी मूल का पाकिस्तानी नहीं देखा होगा क्योंकि जिस मोहम्मद इस्माइल ने 1946 में जिन्ना को मद्रास में विजय दिलाई वो ना तो खुद पाकिस्तान गए, ना उनके कहने पर 1946 में जिन्ना की पार्टी मुस्लिम लीग को वोट देने वाला उनका कोई समर्थक।
तो अब सवाल ये है कि ब्रिटिश भारत के मुसलमानों के लिए नया देश पाकिस्तान बनवाने के बाद पाकिस्तान नही जाकर मोहम्मद इस्माइल ने भारत में रह कर क्या किया। मोहम्मद इस्माइल ने 10 मार्च 1948 में एक नई पार्टी बनाई और उसका नाम रखा Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) और स्वतंत्र हिन्दू (गैर-मुस्लिम) बहुल भारत को ही अब दूसरा पाकिस्तान बनाने के काम में जुट गए। वह 1946 से 1952 तक मद्रास स्टेट provincial असेंबली के सदस्य रहे तथा इसी बीच 1948 में उन्हें मद्रास से Indian Constituent Assembly का सदस्य भी निर्वाचित किया गया। Indian Constituent Assembly (In the chairmanship of Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar) 1947 से 13 मई 1952 तक स्वतंत्र भारत की प्रथम parliament के तौर पर प्रथम लोकसभा निवार्चित होने तक काम करती रही।
मुहम्मद इस्माइल को मद्रास प्रेसीडेंसी से Indian Constituent Assembly का सदस्य चुना गया। स्वतंत्र भारत में प्रथम लोकसभा एवं विधानसभा चुनावों के उपरांत वे 1952 से 1958 तक Indian Union Muslim League की ओर से राज्यसभा सांसद रहे। राज्यसभा सदस्य रहते हुए वे मुस्लिम शरिया law (Muslim personnel laws) को बनाये रखने की वकालत करते रहे, जिसके कारण आज तक हिन्दू (सिख, बोध, जैन भी शामिल), क्रिस्चियन तथा पारसी धर्म की तरह भारत मे Muslim Code bills नही बन सके। Even today also, The Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) opposes the Child Marriage Act on the grounds that it contravenes the Muslim personal law.
वर्ष 1956 के State Reorganisation Act के बाद भाषायी आधार पर केरल एवं तमिलनाडु राज्य बने। केरल के नए राज्य के रूप में अस्तित्व में आने के बाद मद्रास राज्य की मुस्लिम बहुलता केरल की ओर चली गयी, इसलिए मुहम्मद इस्माइल ने IUML की आगे की राजनीति भी केरल राज्य से लड़नी चालू कर दी। और 1962, 1967 तथा 1971 के लोकसभा चुनावों में उत्तर केरल (मालाबार अंचल) के मुस्लिम बहुल क्षेत्र Malappuram (Manjeri) constituency से जीत हासिल कर तीन बार लोकसभा सांसद बने। लेकिन 5 अप्रैल 1972 को लोकसभा सांसद रहते हुए उसकी मृत्यु हो गयी। आज भी उत्तर केरल के malappuram, Wayanad, Kozhikode, Kannur, Kasarkode, Palakkad आदि जिलों में मुस्लिम बहुलता के कारण IUML पार्टी का अच्छा खासा प्रभाव है। तमिलनाडु तथा केरल के मुस्लिमो के बीच मुहम्मद इस्माइल को "Quaid-e-Millat" से सम्मानित कर पुकारा जाता है, जिस तरह पाकिस्तान में मुहम्मद अली जिन्ना को "Quaid-e-Azam" से सम्मानित कर पुकारा जाता है।
लेकिन सबसे बड़ी विडंबना यह है कि जिस कांग्रेस के खिलाफ 1940 के दशक में मुहम्मद इस्माइल, मुहम्मद अली जिन्ना के नेतृत्व में मुस्लिम लीग पार्टी की ओर से ब्रिटिश भारत के मुसलमानों के लिए अलग देश पाकिस्तान की मांग के एजेंडे पर लड़ रहे थे, आज उसी कांग्रेस के साथ मिलकर IUML के नेता केरल में चुनाव लड़ते हैं। साल 1946 के provincial assemblies elections में जिन्ना के साथ मिलकर पाकिस्तान बनवाने वाले मोहम्मद इस्माइल के सम्मान में भारत सरकार द्वारा वर्ष 1996 में डाक टिकट जारी किया। देश को विभाजित करने वालों का ऐसा सम्मान विश्व के किसी और देश ने नहीं किया होगा।
कल जो पार्टी जिन्ना को जीताकर पाकिस्तान बनाना चाहती थी, आज वो ही पार्टी राहुल गांधी को वायनाड से जीताकर पीएम बनाना चाहती है।
और हमें क्या बताया गया ?
केरल सबसे पढ़ा लिखा राज्य है, इसलिए लोग इतने समझदार हैं कि आज तक सांप्रदायिक पार्टी बीजेपी एक भी सीट नहीं जीत पाई।
ये किसी ने नहीं बताया कि पढ़-लिख कर liberal बनने का शौक एक ही कम्युनिटी को है, दूसरे तो आज भी अग्रेज़ों के जमाने की league बनाकर बैठे है किसी जिन्ना के इंतजार में...
What does it mean in English?

People from lahore would come in the evening to Amritsar, would watch bollywood film, and went back to lahore in the evening. But it was stopped after 1965 war. The problem was/is with your Pakistani Army. See, Bangladesh and India so much cordial relations. Due to Your Army, you people lost east Pakistan (now Bangladesh). ...Hum to aaj bhi kehte hai, jio aur jeene do. Jo ho gaya 1947 mein use badal to sakte nahi....Hum to us jagah nahi ja sakte, yahan Hamare Bhagat Sinhh, Rajguru and Sukhdev ji ko fansi di gayi thi. Lahore ke saath woh bhi chali gayi. Woh jail, yahan par krantikari jatinder nath das ji ne apne pran choode the, jab sab log hunger strike pe the. Sab se poojniye sathan hai woh, hum Indians ke liye. Chala gaya, lahore ke saath...pata nahi aap logo ne us jail ko salamt rakha hai, ja gira diya...India mein hoti,....to use roz poojte
My grandmother was born in Amritsar, she died before I was born, but my mom tells me that she always wanted to go see where she was born. This video brought tears to my eyes, I wish I could have helped Mr. Khanna to make his trip easier.
My Nana Abu (late) always got into tears while talking about partition... His city was Jalandhar... He used to recall those beautiful days of his life.... Unfortunately he couldn't visit his city and village...
Sir, do you believe in 2 nation theory. And if you do then why your nana abbu used to miss jalandhar. He might have many hindu friends here.
I’m from JALANDHAR
My grandfather used to send a horse rider to buy pastries from a famous bakery in Lahore until the border closed after 1965 war…. There wasn’t any visa required also … but then some genius Pakistani general decided to launch operation Grand Slam and other such nonsense to test our military’s mettle … so you know who to blame for now hard borders between Pakistan and india …?
Mr. Krishan Khanna has a very warm , non- judgmental personality ; a winning attitude - a precious soul.
It feels so good to read lovable comments from both sides. Loads of love to beautiful people of India and Pakistan from Nepal.

I would love to get in touch with this gentleman. His feelings are so pure. Lots of respect for you sir. I am Pakistan Canadian. My grandfater migrated with his whole family from Ludhyana to Lahore. Still my grandmother recalls her memories along with her house, neighbours, community and her childhood in Ludhyana. I am see spark in her eyes and joy on her while discussing her life in India.
this is the most emotional thing I’ve seen
this man has a beautiful heart, he shares love for both sides, and it’s true “the hatred isn’t between the people but it’s between the governments” but the influence of the government changed peoples minds, I hope one day we can show love and care towards each other freely ❤️🇵🇰🇮🇳
This gentleman deserves dual citizenship his is full of joy.
Unfortunately there is no provision of dual citizenship in India and China...Only in these two countries...
Yashasvi Pachauri mai samjha nahi sorry
@Yashasvi Pachauri I know the meaning because I got two citizenship somali and British
Yashasvi Pachauri now I understood thank you
Totally agree bro❤️
Tears came out when he held the baby, and mum didn't know the background.Myself a son of an immigrant from Amritsir settled in Multan.Baba ji travelled for all of us.
Man.. this uncle made me emotional.😔
I wish everyone could live together with peace and love.
I cried so much after watching this story and I love this uncle he is kind heart and very sensitive person 😢😢
When he cried at the park with happiness it was really touching. I wish both countries allowed more tourism based VISAs.
Imran khan had offered peace. But moodi declined. I would love to visit Hoshyarpur , where my parents came from. We want peace between two nations. Hatred will eat up both countries.
Imran Khan's offers of peace are just as good as China's. On one hand they say they want peace while on the other they will fund terrorism and insurgency. Neither Xinping nor any PM of Pakistan is to be ever trusted.
@@muhammedwasim8272 imran Khan himself doesn't know what he is doing
@@muhammedwasim8272 sorry but free terrorism with peace is not really a good offer. And we voted for Modi to reject such a worthless offer
The people that lost their lives in 26/11 don't think so
I cried watching this video.. It made me remember my Dadaji who came from Dera Ismail Khan. He told us many stories of his city..
I grew up in Dera Ismail Khan! Greetings from this side of the border to you!
we love you as a human being
i live in faisalabad.. 3rd largest city of pakistan.

I am 23 from india.. and i felt emotional.. i always want to visit pakistan once in my lifetime. Love from india ♥️
This documentary is 4 years old. Hope grandpa is still in great health. Do any of you have any updates on this?

I'm 27 years old, I left my school 10 years ago and I stll get emotional when I see my school and touch their wall. Basically I'm saying I can feel his emotions when He reached his school after 74 years. I can't describe that feelings in words. Salute to u sir.😰😰😰😰
Sheikhupura is my hometown, this is my old mohalla, my father actually studied in that school. I have read and heard alot about the history of the subcontinent but seeing something so relatable, makes it very personal, i am pretty sure my grandfather would have known this man. I think stories like this actually show how tragic this was.
I think no more than Sikh people can relate this story from the heart .truly partition also divided Punjab in half and Sikh people cant go to Guru Ji's birth place.
No partition meant:
No Kashmir issue
No terrorism in India
No border tension
No Indo Pak wars and blood shed
Economic well being
Huge dominance on South East Asia
Best cricketing team in the world
No poverty
Massive development
As lot of money will be saved from defence .
Probably whole world would listen to that undivided india
"No terrorism in India" as if you are implying Pakistan is responsible for the terrorists... No wonder partition took place because of people with mentality like yours and the British gave such a partition that the hatred is ongoing.
@@PrechtGaebolgHades wow..so u meant to say that India is responsible for terrorists in India n world..Dawood,Hafiz Saeed ,Masood Azhar Osama to Indians ha na..JeM lashkar, ye sb to indian organization ha..India m hi bkchodi krte rehte ha..26/11 to Karachi pe hua tha aur pulwama to pok pe right??
@@ujjwalkumarsingh812 I'm glad partition happened.
No partition would mean no terrorism in Pakistan. Pakistan has captured multiple Indian spies.

I have never really felt emotional watching documentaries, but this one had me. Uncle ji I hope you felt better in your heart. To have been forced to leave the place of your childhood memories, i understand the pain. My grandparents and great grand father also left in haste and ran away and though he never wanted to go back since half his family got killed there ...we as family are still curious.
i cried the whole video..the feelings everyything was so pure
Grandpa became hero at the age of 92....salute you grandpa for facing huge obstacle in your life.
My entire maternal family migrated from Pakistan. Both my Nanaji and Naniji migrated from Sialkot. The name of their native village was Kot Ram Das which of course was changed to a different name after partition (I don't remember the changed name). My Naniji passed away in 2007 but my Nanaji who is 87 years old and is bed bound speaks highly about Pakistan. He had the opportunity to visit Pakistan in 1997 and I remember he bringing back loads and loads of gifts which the local people from his village in Pakistan gifted him. He always spoke highly of Lahore and he still says 'jis ne Lahore ka Anarkali Bazar nai dekha usne is pure jahan Mai kuch nahi dekha". Thanks for sharing this video. This reminded me of the conversations I had with my Nanaji about Pakistan and how his eyes use to light up when he spoke about it. I too wish I could visit his anscestral home one day.
It is still Kot Ram Das
I dnt think so the name is changed because we migrated from jalandhar to pakistan but where we live in pakistan village near nankana sahib named dhanuwana was same old name as before partition
Saurav Dhillon: Really amazed to see your comments. Let me share you about myself. I am 35. I born in Sialkot, studied in Sheikhupura and doing a job in Lahore. We have a home in Sialkot. It is good to hear you that your family belongs to Sialkot. Yes, Lahore is lovely city and so the people. Anarkali Bazar has its charm. Food is great in Lahore. I lives in Lahore and love that city. Please share your plan whenever your family intends to visit Sialkot or Lahore. We love you a lot. Please convey my prayers and love to your elders and family. Boht Boht Salaam and love ❤

Only post i come across in social media where indians and pakistanis are not abusing each other; rather are happy to know the past.
This made me cry,it was so beautiful to see uncle that he was able to see his hometown,I hope conditions improve, between both the countries.After all from both sides of the border.People have a golden heart.
My grandmother also from karachi wo sab kuch chor ke India a gaye the aj bhi wo Karachi ko bahot yaad karte hai karachi unke dil me hai aaj bhi
All Indians over 70 who have roots in Pak should have visa free entry in our Country , its their Birth right
I agree, dont you think India should apply the same... They wont even give visa for a funeral visit.. shame
@@symals same on both sides
@@symals The same country gives hundreds of special visas for urgent medical emergencies to Pakistani's every year on humanitarian grounds. Visiting visas are banned on both sides. You are talking like Pakistan is giving visas to Indians. For the betterment, work should be done on both sides.
@@nikmon3591 100s of visas on medical ground? Any statistical data to back that claim? Feel you are getting defensive and protective. There is no need for that, as this is a discussion and my comment of SHAME is at the system and situation, not any person... Btw You forgot to add cultural visa to artists lol.... But thats not the point. Point of discussion are "ordinary folks" millions with links on both sides, not artists not diplomats and not people with esp. circumstances... These people like this old grandpa are the victims.. and my grandma.. who passed at the age of 85 with wishes and dream to visit her ancestral haveli on the indian side...

It cannot heal completely

Beautiful video beautiful. I lost my DAD due to covid this year but he used to live in Bangladesh before partition now I can understand why he used to miss his nation so much.

We Bangladeshis, Indians and Pakistanis are made from same blood and mud and by the same creator. Media and governments’ hatred, greed and gossip has made this sub-continent divide into three countries (1947 & 1971).
🙏 💜 kind words .
British also had a big hand in it.
Absolutely Ferdous we have lot many things common and we All love each other
Sahi bole bhai
Can I say something ? Please don't mind I always had a wish to say this to Bangladeshi and I am an Indian bangali ,"Amar Sonar Bangla ami tomay valobashi"
The documentary shows that we love each other 💜
Hindu not welcome to Pakistan 👹👹👹👹👹👹👹👹👹👹👹
Truly heartbreaking. The pain of the partition is rarely captured or spoken of. This really shone out here. Made me cry 💔
I am from Serbia and dont have any conection with your part of world, but i was crying like a baby...
did you understand it ?
Even your country faced same kind of trauma at a point of time. Eventually India breaks into 3 and Yugoslavia breaks into 6.
I am from germany and it made me so sad to see the grandpa remembering all the pain and suffering he saw and lived through but it also made me so glad when he was greeted so happily and him enjoying it. Yes it doesnt have anything to do with me but i was very emotional.
Do you feel the same for people of Kosovo and Bosnia?
Boy, this is painful . My heart is burning with grief now , getting breathless, tearful eyes . It’s shown, many millions Indians and Pakistanis would have the same story. Peace to all
Indeed brother.
Yes, your are right, but very important for now for us is Love and Respect (Zindabad but Both India & Pakistan)
Yes my roots are from Bhopal,my ansectors were Fuedal Lords there.
my family left Haryana in 1947 for Multan in Pakistan..my grand father still remembers the streets he used to run in..
My ancestors are from Noakhali..My grandfather settled in Bengal(India) after Noakhali riots
Very authentic and reality based thoughts. Indeed it is pleasant to see the whole documnetry.
Prayer for that we can be united again and forever by loving each other.
This was very very emotional . The feeling of seeing your home and wanted to stay there but not allowed unfortunately. Too much emotional it was .
