====Pakistan==== In [[Pakistan]] "foreign films", and series are not normally dubbed locally. Instead, foreign films, anime and cartoons, such as those shown on [[Nickelodeon Pakistan]] and [[Cartoon Network Pakistan]], are dubbed in [[Hindi]] in India, as Hindi and [[Urdu]], the national language of Pakistan, are [[mutually intelligible]]. However, soap operas from [[Turkey]] are now dubbed in Urdu and have gained increased popularity at the expense of Indian soap operas in Hindi.<ref>{{cite news |title=In Pakistan, Indian soap operas give way to Turkish serials |url=https://www.firstpost.com/living/in-pakistan-indian-soap-operas-give-way-to-turkish-serials-1260549.html |access-date=15 April 2021 |work=Firstpost |date=1 December 2013}}</ref> This has led to protests from local producers that these are a threat to Pakistan's television industry, with local productions being moved out of peak viewing time or dropped altogether.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Siddiqui |first1=Maleeha Hamid |title=Is TV drama industry overreacting to Turkish soaps blitz? |url=https://www.dawn.com/news/772593/is-tv-drama-industry-overreacting-to-turkish-soaps-blitz |access-date=15 April 2021 |work=Dawn |date=20 December 2012 |language=en}}</ref> Similarly, politicians and leaders have expressed concerns over their content, given Turkey's less conservative culture.<ref>[http://latitude.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/01/10/the-geopolitics-of-soap-operas/ The Geopolitics of Soap Operas], ''[[The New York Times]]'', 10 January 2013</ref>
