From Dracula to Statesman
A film about the life of the celebrated founder of Pakistan,
Mohammed Ali Jinnah has been stirring up passions in the country
recently. Though it has gone ahead, in his bid to raise its
profile outside of the Indian sub-continent, the producer, Akbar
S. Ahmed, decided to cast a Hollywood star in the leading role - Christopher Lee.
