"Who knows where my friend is?
Who knows where my friend is hiding?
Who knows whether he is scared in the dark night?
Who knows whether he is hungry and unable to stand on his feet?
Who knows if the place where he sits is damp?”
By Shakeel Shan
Shakeel Shan found this was the only way to express what he saw,
and felt as he was overwhelmed with the loose of his friend, during
the war.
Shakeel said, “"What do I write? These are amateur poems which
reveal whatever I see. I have no other means to tell my story”
"I fear
They will come Whose eyes pierce like spears And bruise
over hearts Those faceless people do talk Doors of wine houses
have been bolted Guards have been stationed On the temples of
beauty The city has been vandalized Wailing bleak evenings seem
to be descending.”

express the pain he felt at the sight of seeing a blood-drenched dress
of a bridegroom. Everyone seemed to have been effected by the
invasion of Pakistani forces, which left many bloodied.
Like Nazki many people feared the mass exodus of Kashmiri Hindu,
was around the corner.
• Through the darkness, arose a bright side,
which resulted in the mobilization of Kashmiri
writers and other artist. Their poems and
words will always live on.
• News reports, songs, documentaries, and
even movies were produced with their own
visions, depicting the war. One of the most
famous that gained an audience worldwide
was the Bollywood film, “Mission Kashmir."

The film tells a story about a boy Altaaf, who witnessed his parents and sister
being killed by an invasion from the police. When Altaaf is eleven years old he I
adopted by officer Khan and his wife Neelima. A few years after being adopted,
Khans fear came to life, and Altaaf realized who he was and left seeking out
revenge. Altaaf leaves Kashmir for ten years and is found by the leader of a
terrorist group, Hilal Kohistani. During the ten years with him, Altaaf is
brainwashed and trained to be a terrorist. When Altaaf returns he is under the
impression that they are going back to kill the prime minister.
They found out that Mission Kashmir has nothing to do with taking down the
Prime Minister but to launch missiles on the local Muslim mosque and the local
Hindu temple to escalate Hindu-Muslim conflict across the subcontinent, thereby
dividing Kashmir and turning it into a war zone.
Khan is able to get Altaaf past his hatred and to be on his side; Altaaf is able to
get his hands on the missile launcher and use it to destroy the other launchers
and kill the remaining terrorists.
• Although the movie features a love story, they are able to bring about
one of the main problems that continue in Jammu & Kashmir; a war over
religion.
• in the Indian Embassy, They claim that “Kashmir is not an Islamic or a
religious issue and the two nation theory has been seen to be
irrelevant….The problem of Kashmir today is one of terrorism sponsored
by Pakistan. The targets are Muslims in Kashmir, belaying Pakistan’s
argument that it is concerned about the welfare of Muslims in Kashmir.
• The Pakistani Government concludes that “Pakistan has never shield
away from bilateral engagement with India of which the ongoing
composite dialogue is a manifestation. We hope that the process of
composite dialogue will lead to peaceful settlement of all bilateral
issues, including Jammu and Kashmir, to the satisfaction of both sides.
