The pretty-as-pink Kalki Koechlin is known for speaking her mind (and heart). Last year she was in Pakistan to be part of a Sabiha Sumar film Azmaaish. Ever since relations between India and Pakistan have become tense, the exchange of talent from the realm of performing arts on both sides has stopped. But Kalki K is not afraid of anyone. She has been quoted to have said to a Pakistani media outlet that she will never forget some of the moments during filming of the project on the other side of the Wagah border. She distinctly remembers the desert in Sindh and a small peak near Islamabad, climbing which gave her immense pleasure. Well, Kalki K, the feeling is mutual. Pakistani art lovers admire you just as much. Peace.
