Pakistani actors Fawad Khan and Mahira Khan have been targeted by the Shiv Sena, who have asked “responsible citizens” like Shah Rukh Khan, Farhan Akhtar and Karan Johar not to sign them in their films. Shiv Sena has vowed not to let the Pakistani actors promote their upcoming films in Maharashtra.
Fawad, who made his Bollywood debut with the 2014 film ‘Khoobsurat’, has more Hindi films including Dharma Productions’ ‘Kapoor & Sons’ and ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’.
On the other hand, Mahira is all set to make her Bollywood debut with Rahul Dholakia’s ‘Raees’.
“We have taken a stand not to allow any Pakistani actor, cricketer or performer to step on Maharashtra soil” said Chitrapat Sena general secretary Akshay Bardapurkar.
Shiv Sena had prevented legendary Pakistani singer Ghulam Ali from performing here earlier this month.
“We are not really bothered about who is signing these Pakistanis in their film. Karan Johar, Farhan Akhtar, Shah Rukh Khan etc. are responsible citizens and they should not cast Pakistanis in their film,” Bardapurkar added.
This is unfair.Why are we bringing politics in sports and other creative fields.Yes we don’t have a healthy relationship with our neighbors but that doesn’t mean we don’t allow other actors or singers to perform in our nation
Why?
OK, just looked up Shiv Sena (I thought it was a person). Turns out it’s a far-right political party.
This story just made a whole lot more sense
Good work by shiv sena.
Idiots.
Because of these hypocrites, religious riots are taking place every now and then. Art doesn’t recognise any border or religion and they should understand this.
Now they are targeting Pakistanis, but few years back, they targeted their own country men, when a number of violent attempts have been made to throw out north Indians (specially, residents of Bihar and UP) from Mumbai. Their politics itself is based on hate as well as ‘divide and rule’ policy.
Agree with Shiv Sena…When we have so many talented actors/actresses struggling to get an entry in bollywood,why cast a Pakistani??
These pakistanis are obsessed with indians,check their twitter trendlist..daily you will an anti-indian trend there like #EndOfIndiaIn2020 #BharatGetLost etc etc.
India loses to South Africa and they start mocking india.
A blast took place in a bus in Quetta 2 days ago and now they started trending Raw responsible for Quetta blast.
On twitter pakistanis hardly discuss anything except India,Kashmir,Khalistan,RAW.
On our Republic day,these morons were trending #RapePublicDay..They accuse us of raping our women coz of few incidents even when all the statistics show Pakistan is the 3rd or 4th dangerous place for women in the world.
They accuse us of harrassing our minority groups like the muslims and sikhs when all the socio-economic indicators reflect that the hindu minority people in Pakistan have been persecuted over the years,their temples have been destroyed.
Sorry but I am strictly against these Pakistanis getting into bollywood.
They boycotted many of SRK movies, just because he allowed few Pakistani players and mentors in his KKR. I can understand they pretend themselves to be extreme nationalist , but by doing all this drama, they are not harming anybody but themselves.
Attention seakr.. I twll u im frm maharashtra.. N this is crap..narow minded..rotlus they are…
Who care this Bin Pendi Ke Lota Party.
If Shivsena have power than they should fight on the Indo-Pak border.
Shivshena have two face this time they become a Puru Nationalised.
And the time of election Shivasena beat North Indians. That time which type of Nationalism Shivasena show????????
Wtf seriously wtf is this.
First they started disputed over north indians.
And Now these illiterate politicians will decide whic player should play, which singer should sing, which actor should act.
I just want to say very humbly that,
Dear politicians ye Maharashtra ya country tumhare baap ki nahi hai ki jo marzi karoge.
Shiv Sena is not doing right . I know what is happening on the Border but who is responsible for it ? Terrorists, Pakistani Army and Infiltrators . Ghulam Ali is a Legend in Ghazals and my Mom and Dad just love his voice . Even yesterday they entered the office of BCCI and the meeting between Manohar( BCCI Chief) and Sharyar(PCB Chief) got cancelled . Former Pakistan Batsman said if this happens i don’t think Pakistan players will come to India for T20 World Cup 2016 . Balasaheb Thackeray is no more but his legacy still continues . There are more ways rather than doing all this nonsense .
The peoples like Shiv Sena who think they are patriotic with their country should hang till death on a center of Road. Peoples like them spreading negativity between Two Beautiful neighbor countries.
Morons kind of Shiv Sena and his party are found in any country and any nation Govt. Of India should take a serious action against them.
Because Entertainment has no boundaries no language and no religion example movies like BABY, Bahubali, Bajrangi Bhaaijan and PK.
No bandooq say Na goli say…Problem solve hongay sirf boli say..4 GOD sake Shivsena let peace initiatives prosper. Dont make hate hate hate. Full repect for karan SRK Farhan
Sshiv sena should b banned instead .. very irritating party. Always ban ban ban… anti Pakistani ppl. Indians r against terrorists and anti social elements of pak not wasim akram sohaib akhtar fawad khan ghulam ali mahira khan etc.
Go get jobs you jobless fanatixXx
Such a cheap Political Party this Shiv Sena — trying to divide the unity of India , in the name of religion !
I think this is the shiv sena who spreaded negativity against MNIK in 2010.later when PM Manmohan Singh watched MNIK said,KING SRK is the pride of India.
I think shove sena can’t do action besides giving long speeches,why don’t they directly caught those terrorists instead of targeting innocent Pakistanis and why don’t they don’t want to understand every Pakistanis are not terrorists,don’t how foolish Maharashtra citizens given vote to these irresponsible overhyped media attention seeking party and don’t know what they’ll get by doing this types of dumb announcements.will KING SRK/Farhan,KJO SIR will towards shove sena,THEY just don’t give a damn towards dumbest party of India.people need to kick out these type of cheapest parties.
First of all Shah Rukh Khan has not signed Mahira ( it was signed by director/producer ) .
They also Said SRK should say sorry during MNIK but Mila kya? Babaji Ka thullu.. Shiv sena is attention hungry, are obsessed with SRK, they didn’t protest when mahira went in India but will protest now when the film is 80% completed and when Raees will release? i knew this will happen already since they obsessed with SRK but i know this too Shiv Sena is nothing infront of SRK..
There are better things for these extremist to do it instead of targeting celebrities. idiots!!!
hahahahahahahahahaha…. LOL on shiv Sena….. SRK will kick you once again after MNIK….. LOL….
who the hell are these people ….first throw this fucking lunatics from India….good people are always welcome to India….
Ban raees and kapoor &sons
Thatd best for business
Yes! they should not we have enough talent here in India, Why look for it cross border. There are so many Indians who look better den mahira and Fawad. Give them a chance.
?Shivsena? people don’t have problem with SRK, there real problem is that they have problems with Muslims . They hate Muslims and ??Shah Rukh Khan? is the only Actor In Bollywood. Who Represents ?Islam? at the Highest level that’s the Main Reason That they are targeting SRK more than anyone!
These extremist jokers are hungry for publicity, has nothing to do now the only thing left for him is to target people like SRK & give such statements.. they also said MNIK will not release.. MNIK RELEASE HUI THI KI NAHI ? wo bhi tab jab Balasaheb zindaa tha ab to ghanta aukaat nahi inka .
Shivsena ke paas aur kuch kaam hai ki nahi ? ki din bhar ye check karte rehte hain kaun pakistani aa raha hai ?
these chutiya shivsena ppl will create such controversy during raees too , art has no nationality
Akshay going to creat some problems for srk & karan. Lol!
Their problem with SRK is that SRK refused to bow to them & didn’t please them like Salman etc did.
Shivsena
1) Anti Muslims
2) Anti Biharis
3) Anti SRK
Humanity naam ki koi cheez nahi bachi
yeah right pakistan has a good industry now can work in pakistan they dont need bollywood and indians dont need pakistani industry
but it will be good to share talent whats wrong in that even kareena is gonna sign pakistani movie
peace
Shame on traitors who sign Pakistani actors in films.
