Look at what Salman Khan has gone through for his black-buck case or Sanjay Dutt in spite of being Indians they’ve faced the full impact of the laws here. I feel happy that the laws are followed so scrupulously in India. Rahat saab was earning so much money in India. He should’ve paid his taxes in the proper way.

So you think the hue and cry against his detention in Pakistan was uncalled-for?
If a female Pakistani artiste had been similarly detained in India. Pakistani reactions would’ve been different. Because that was Rahat Fateh Ali Khan Saab they said, let him go. If it was Veena Malik they’d have said, where did she get this money from? Mere oppar itna kichad oochala jata. I’d like to tell my people, khuda ke vaste double standards khatam karo.

But most importantly Mallik is happy with having landed herself a chance to brush up her analytical knowledge of the game. “I’ve followed cricket passionately all my life. Now, when I sit with some of the biggest names in the game, I feel like an achiever. It’s been nearly a month that I’ve been discussing the nuances of the WC matches. Each one has helped my perspective evolve,” she adds.
