Pakistan's Hindus number somewhere between 2.5-5 million according to the popular Hindu politician Kishinchand Parwani. Over 95% of them live in the province of Sindh; most are poor farmers and labourers from the scheduled castes. Many of the worshippers at Karachi's temples are somewhat better off, and the calm affluence of Karachi's wealthier Hindus is worlds apart.

Consequently, there are many distinguished Hindus in Pakistan. Pakistani spin bowler, Danish Kaneria plays for the cricket team and emerges as a great player. His uncle has played for the team as well.

Some other famous people are Rana Bhagwandas, Supreme Court Judge, and Deepak Perwani, a famous designer.
