Poor Meera Jee. Nobody leaves her alone, even in her own "con-tree". How patriotic does she have to be to return to her own "con-tree" even after fatwas were issued against her by the maulvis!!
This interview at the airport even inspired an Indian movie director to use the character in "Salaam-E-Ishq" in 2007.

Rings a big bell when you watch the movie after watching this.
