Similar to the other thread, just the other way round.

What I like....
1) Pakistani singers
2) Cricket - Former fast bowlers and some current players (Sarfaraz, Azhar Ali, Yasir Shah)
3) I like the way they say “Inshallah” every now and then...sounds very humble and genuine

I had heard great things about Pakistani food and so tried it when i was in Europe/middle east. Sadly I hated it (Maybe because the restaurants I visited/ordered from sucked). Next time I visit a new country (USA Inshallah :) ), I will ask for suggestions here.
 
The food.

Think Indian food, cranked up by a couple of notches.
 
There persuasion skills, I mean, one of my Pakistani friend I met online had me believed that 9/11 was an Inside job. :misbah
 
I actually get along better with Pakistanis than I do with Indians. Some of my best friends in college were Pakistanis. They were almost all kind and easy to get along with. For some reason, Indian students tended to form cliques among their own ethnic groups. This was especially true for Gujaratis. But I felt that Pakistanis were more open. Just my experiences. Take it for what it’s worth
 
In my personal experience, Pakistanis are simpler and emotional than indians. It's easy to get along with Pakistani even with bigger conflicts.

And that aspect is, for Pakistanis, is an asset as well as weakness in my opinion.

But none the less, the genuine care that a Pakistani shows is what surprised me initially. But not anymore.

What about Pakistani punjabis? Advance apologies for stereotyping but most Indian punjabis are not the simple kinds. I find them shrewd, especially ones from Delhi.

They had to leave everything back when they settled in delhi. had to be shrewd to survive. Especially punjabi hindus.
 
1) bade dil wale log
2) Abida Parveen and Saaeen Zahoor
اردو کی خوبصورت آواز (3
4) Sindh jo pyaari zameen
5) Guru ki janmabhoomi
6) Sanam Saaeed meri dil ki rani
 
Pak people are generally better looking. It is an honest analysis. Our men are stronger and taller then Indian ones as well.
 
1. Mohenjodaro
2. Harappa
3. Chitral
4. Hunza Valley
5. Momina Mustehsan :)

I personally think beauty is a subjective thing. Not all Indians are the same, neither are all Pakistanis. Even within an ethnicity, there's so much variation.
I'm an Indian Kashmiri and my girlfriend happens to be from Karnataka!
 
Things I like/admire about Pakistan:

1) The people, who are ethnically close to Indians. I root for Pakistanis to do well (except when they are competing with Indians :) ) as it also reflects well on Indians.
2) The ancient civilization of Harappa and Mohenjodaro.
3) The region beautiful mountains (which unfortunately I probably will never have the pleasure of visiting).
4) Sportsmen like Imran, Jahangir and Jamsher.
5) Politicians like Nawaz Sharif who was overthrown by the Army and locked up in a cramped cell, but had the courage to leave behind a comfortable life and come back and fight again.

Did you really have to include that 5th point? Nullifies your whole post.
 
Pakistan television shows
Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan Qawalis
Pakistan Mangoes.
Pakistani Girls. ( There are beautiful girls in India also , but on average Pakistan is ahead )

5) wasn't a troll. If you look at my other posts I have always said good things about NS.

Is NS a thief? Probably is one. But then all politicians are thieves, and the question is who is going to lead the country to development.

As I Indian, I also like NS because I think he genuinely wants peace with India. As a businessman he knows that economic development has to come from the private sector which requires getting the Army out of the economy. The Army on the other hand wants to remain dominant within Pakistan, and that requires continuing war with India.

If you support IK, I hope your expectations that he will deliver for Pakistan come true.

Idk if y'all know this but the Sharifs support Kashmiri seccesion, in fact they have Kashmiri connections. So I'm not sure how Indians would feel about that.

It is quite possible to both support Kashmir secession and peace with India which will lead to economic development.

It is quite possible to both support Kashmir secession by non-violent means and peace with India which will lead to economic development.

Yeah but Indians get triggered if you even mention Kashmir, recent Afridi tweets are a case in point.
 
Their cricket.

Food looks aesthetic. Never had, but appears so.

Used to like Nusrat and the whole sufi rock genre around a decade back. Tired of it now.

Fawad Khan in Kapoor & Sons was brilliant. That's his only work I've watched, but he stood out in it among desi actors.
