"I don't expect anything spectacular or dramatic because the Indo-Pak relationship is so complex", External Affairs Minister SM Krishna told reporters in Mumbai.

He said Foreign Secretary Nirupama Rao's visit to Pakistan was primarily "to prepare the ground for my visit to Islamabad next month".

Besides Krishna, Home Minister P Chidambaram is also scheduled to visit Pakistan in July to attend a meeting of SAARC Interior Ministers.

Krishna was in Mumbai to visit ailing cartoonist RK Laxman who is undergoing treatment at Breach Candy Hospital.
