In a response to Indian reports that a Pakistani pilot was in Indian custody, Information Minister Attaullah Tarar strongly rejected them, saying that they were “totally false and concocted”.

“Get out of [your] B-tier Bollywood mindset,” the information minister said in an interview on Geo News show ‘Aaj Shahzeb Khanzada Kay Sath’.

Earlier, Indian journalist Barkha Dutt reported in a post on X: “A Pakistani pilot is in Indian custody — more details awaited.”
