Chandigarh, May 11

Amid political pandemonium in Pakistan fuelled by the arrest of former premier Imran Khan, the song ‘Hum Dekhenge’ from an India movie— The Kashmir Files— has been used ‘illegally’ by PTI chief on his Instagram while showcasing public support against his detention.

The Kashmir Files director, Vivek Agnihotri, took to Twitter to bring the issue into public notice while claiming it to be a reflection of power of Indian cinema and also at the same time flagging the act as illegal.

Imran had on Tuesday posted a video of people taking to the road in protest owing to his arrest on corruption charges. In the bid, he used the aforementioned movie’s song in the background.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
