What happens
Tehzeeb (transl. Culture) is a 1971 Pakistani film directed by Hassan Tariq. It stars Rani, Shahid, Sabiha Khanum, Rangeela, Aslam Pervaiz and Lehri. The makers of this film were asked to change a reference to Egypt (Misr in Urdu language) because it might prove detrimental to diplomatic relations with that country. While the line Laga hai Misr ka bazaar dekho (transl. Come see the Egyptian market) changed to Laga hai husn ka bazaar dekho (transl. Come see the market of beauty) in the movie soundtrack, audio-recordings of the film song had already sold in good numbers. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
