Uhh ... Indian guy here and you are wrong.
India and Pakistan are politically distinct but have millennia of shared history and to this day have numerous cultural overlaps. The two nations were born out of the partition of British India. Punjabi and Urdu are spoken by major chunks of population in India as well as Pakistan, Islam is practised by numerous Indians and most Pakistanis, and music, cinema and sports of very similar kinds are popular in both countries.
So, no ... while India and Pakistan are not identical, the similarities between the two countries are significant enough to confuse an outsider. I don't really blame Hollywood/IMDB users/anybody for making that mistake.
