What, huh, Sindhi no longer spoken in Pakistan? Cha toh pee ain, Shah sb?

Naseeruddin Shah, Bollywood’s acting powerhouse, recently spoke to ‘Tried & Used Productions’ about the BJP government’s attacks on Urdu language. Condemning the enmity displayed towards Urdu, he said that other than Pakistan, India is the only country where the language is spoken.

However, a comment given by the actor ignited the ire of Pakistani Twitter users. Shah said that in Pakistan, people speak more Punjabi than Urdu, and Sindhi is not spoken there at all.

We would like to point out that Sindhi is the official language of Sindh province and is taught as a compulsory language in all schools there.

Turns out, Naseeruddin Shah may know everything there is to know about acting, but he doesn’t have much general knowledge.

Many users had to question Naseeruddin’s confidence in saying that Sindhi isn’t spoken in Pakistan, when in reality it is the official language of the province, and is proudly spoken by locals.
