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.
Babaji ka thullu 3:07 pm : ” Agree with Shiv Sena…When we have so many talented actors/actresses struggling to get an entry in bollywood,why cast a Pakistani?? ”
So it means you’re against your idol Akshay Kumar who worked with more than 3 + Paki actors in Baby ? So you think he did wrong by working with them in his own film ? & you agree with Shiv Sena, disagree with your own idol Akshay kumar? & support Shiv Sena & is against Akki Sahab ?
your own idol Akshay has no problem working with Paki actors as he is a good thinking guy whereas his fans are against such thing & supporting article of extremists ? Come on dude !!!
Salman is the only megastar who can turn masalas and remakes into blockbusters

I am from Maharashtra and i hate such kind of extremism.. ShivSena should be banned from Mahrashtra and thrown out of india…
@babaji, didn’t expect such an awful comment from you…
Making explosions or killing by guns only treated as terrorism?
They said at their ‘samna’ man who eat beaf should be killed!!
Spreading extreme thinking and allowing or supporting people to kill in the name of region is also terrorism…
Sorry to say this, it’s not against Pakistan, but ultimately against Islam!!
@Kulkarni I’m congress supporter … Congress is much better n sensible party than bjp but I’m maharashtrian….. I’m proud of shivsena…. What they r doing is right….
All of u 1st come to Mumbai then u will get answer from Mumbai people….
Shivsena is heart of Mumbai people….
They love this party alot…. At any time at any situation these people always support shivsena….
Mumbai mafia raaj reduces due to shivsena….
Without shivsena Mumbai will turn again heel….
Those who are saying Shiv Sena should ban , first ban on MIM he is anti hinustani he insult of Hindu god . We Hindu worship Lord Rama but MIM insult of lord Rama Mother . We hinu people always humble & Respect about other religion . But this Paki should ban in India they are really harm for Indian Culture .
@Babaji good comment even i hate pakistanis..minority in india is still supported a lot i beleive but condition of minority in pakistan is the worst..and even in bangladesh even if we do the same then what willl happen..but we are rather more better people at heart…not communal or any such but they are the worst peoples..thats it
@babuji sahib .
I did not mean religion.
Not interested in religion but I wrote with sour only becoz of Raees Co actress not because of supporting my own religion.
I converted from Islam to Christianity a number of years ago, and it was the Koran itself that cause that conversion, because what the Koran actually teaches is not practice but misinterpreted by those who want to push their own ideologies. God gave Abraham a promise He said he will build a great nation from the descendants of Ishmael but they would know no peace because of Abraham’s disobedience and even today that hatred is extended towards Jews and Christians worldwide. A number of Iman’s are converting to Christianity not because people are preaching to them but the Koran itself is causing this conversion. Simply when these men study Arabic they begin to realize the true interpretation of the Koran and not what was past down to them through the ages. Hatred was born in the heart of Satan, and those who hate quickly become his followers, Love comes from God, so how can you tell people about love and hate your neighbours and fellowman, because the heart is deceitful and desperately wicked for out of it comes the issues of life. My God daughter is married to a Pakistani Christian and you could not ask for a nicer person, but this gentleman Shiv Sena is looking for power and it is sad that we allow politicians to manipulate the people to satisfy their own ego, no smart person will ever agree to such nonsense, I always believed that Politics and Politicians should stay out of sports and entertainment, when they do they try to corrupt the systems. This is God world not ours He created all men equal and we have no right to try to divide people because of race, class, colour or religious beliefs, for He has given every man a free will of choice. One does not hate the person but one might not like what the individual stands for, there is a difference. Politics is a very dirty game and those that enter it might not be all bad but there are many who are. I don’t waste my time arguing with anyone about religion or politics, what I believe is my own business and I live my life as I see fit.
Overreaction at its finest.
Don’t mix-up religion with nationality, guys. They didn’t say anything related to religion or Muslims, if they had, they would have been 100% wrong. They only said about Pakistanis, not Indian born Muslims. Some people are mixing it up with ‘religion’ because it’s a very popular topic.
WTF!!!!!! Seriously they are ridiculous… I hate politicians whether it is from our country or India…
“In 2012, the Indian government stated 21.9% of its population is below its official poverty limit. The World Bank, in 2011 based on 2005’s PPPs International Comparison Program, estimated 23.6% of Indian population, or about 276 million people, lived below $1.25 per day on purchasing power parity.” Some sources claim it’s 29.5%.
This is also government’s numbers, actual numbers should be much higher. Or else, just look around your area, streets, poor communities, slums. We don’t have enough jobs for Indians.
So, we should definitely offer job opportunities to Pakistanis, who hate India, curse India, crucify India. (sarcasm intended)
Pakistani’s may end up ruling Bollywood (and other sectors in India) in few years if they are supported by some of the biggest stars in India.
I stand with Farhan & SRK on this. Shiv Sena is an extremists party who gave them authority to issue all these orders? I agree they are ruling party (along BJP) in Maharashtra but you can’t bound people like this. SRK go ahead & cast Mahira I hope you will not budge in front of them like you had done to them in past.
Baniye ka Dimaag aur Miyanbhai ki Daring !!!!!!!!
(For the first time I am writing this line correctly because when comes to Secular India I am a fan of Humanity)

Shiv sena’s r out of there mind…just ignore them…as our constitution say every one can express there thoughts & Words…let them speck what they can…ignore ignore ignore ignore …
@Babaji ka thullu- Do you know how many people exist in Pakistan? Millions! And do you know how many people trend those trends on twitter? Thousand….. Most of them are bots. So coming too conclusion that Pakistan is fully against India then it is wrong! Otherwise Indian movies would have been banned long time ago.Also most grossing films in Pakistan is Indian films.
I said the same on one of my comment on below link:
http://www.indicine.com/movies/bollywood/bhar-do-jholi-meri-from-bajrangi-bhaijaan-first-look/
I am against Shiv Sena as a political party, they are even creating devide among Indian by torturing Non-Maharastrian likes if UP & Bihar’s people. But I believe we Indians are so tolerant that if even anybody give a slap to us we still believed to live in theory to give another chance to Slap us. I am a proud Indian but I opposes to give chance to Pak’s artist or sportpersons to get opportunity in India. Why won’t we gives chance to only Indians. Pak is not just a neighbour country we know, there motives are always to create terror in India. I do agree with what @babaji and others saying.
In India we allow to give opportunity to people like Owaisi to built a political party whose only motive is to devide the nation, the forefathers of owaisi were demanded to include Hyderabad in Pakistan. His brother was insulted Hindu god’s. There are many muslims in India who always cheers for Pakistan even though living in India from many years. Shiv Sena was right to protest against MNIK because that time srk come in favour of Pak players but why?
@Shaheer In Pakistan there are less than 1% Hindu now while around partition it was 20%+ Hindus were there. While In India the Muslim proportion increased significantly. We had given chance to Muslims to come at top in respective field if they are talented. That’s why Kalam had been president of this County, Hamid Ansaru is vice president. Mohd Azhar,nawab pataudi been captain for Indian team. Yusuf saheb to Nawajuddin Irfan got enough opportunity to show their talents in India. Likes of Khan trio ruling Bollywood where 80% audience belong to Hindu Religion. And you are talking India is not a secular country anymore. Can you tell me any Muslim country who gives chance to Hindus to come at the top if their field. I don’t think so.
And those who are abusing Pakistani people, if the govt is anti India why punish innocent people? I am an Indian n will condemn any terrorist act whether come from Pakistan or Israel or any country or religion. But you can’t stop people who wants to be one and work towards unity n brotherhood !!!!!!!!! Where were you when Wasim Akram was coaching KKR in IPL? where were you when Pakistani commentators like Rameez Raja & Shoaib Akhtar were part of IPL? Where were you when singers like Atif Aslam and Rahat Fateh Ali Khan were singing songs for Bollywood movies ? Why desh bhakti only when it is about a Khan n about a Muslim ? Why can’t you condemn Star sports, Set Max n all the non Khans n non Muslims hired services of Pakistani artists n sportsmen ?
5 Pakistani singers(Rahat, Shafqat, Adnan, Atif, Ali), 4 actors from Pakistan (Mahira, Mawra, Fawad, Ali.) and people think Pakistan is taking over… :P That is kind of funny.
@Xzone I agree that India’s ideology is always to treat every person not from religion but on talent basis. We are giving enough opportunity to all. But we shouldn’t forget India is a country where 80% population are of Hindu, In ‘Geeta’ Shri Krishna had said that If anybody who believe to destroy you, you should counter them in same way. Pak artist aren’t our enemy but they are definitely killing oppurunities for Indians in India. They belong to our enemy nation. Forget Gandhiji Ideology, who was agree to Make Jinnah PM of United India to avoid partition, if it was happened India won’t be the same India which It has.
Breaking news in Myanmar,
One of political party(named 969) they didn’t allow for Namaz two masjid in TAAKEYTA near Yangon. Politicians create problems because of election coming 8th November. Nearly NLD(National League for Democracy) party win but current government don’t want give to NLD. Now all they create so many problems in many states. This time Sue kyi(NLD)sure win the election. sorry for non related comment.

This Some Sena Party always use Srk”s name for free publicity…Indian movies realise is pakistan srk salman too popular in pakistan they love our star then why we not.Yes I agreed that we have some major issue with them.This party just playing politics they dont care about us.if they really care for us then why they not fight againt Mehengai curruption,they have too many issue to fight but they only talking about sports and Movies….Shame on them
@sheheer: I strongly condemn if they have written such things in Samna.I am not a shivsena supporter either neither do I follow them.
Killing anyone over eating beef can’t be justified at any cost.Eating beef is against Hindu religion,just like eating pork in Islam.But still Hindus are considered the most tolerant people and I think they have no other option than tolerating it.Currently beef is banned in most indian states but what if a hindu guy goes abroad to live? He may have to eat in the same restaurant where beef is also served.He can’t protest there to ban the beef.So my idea is to better tolerate!!
@sheheer:: Shiv Sena is not the only organisation in the world promoting extreme thinking..
What does Hafiz Saeed says in his rallies? He spews out venom against other religions and india.
What does these Owaisi brothers do all the time? They are again extremists..This Akbaruddin Owaisi called Narendra Modi,the PM of India as Satan(shaitan) and they deliver hateful speeches all the time.
Let’s us be clear, India is not a secular country, for Muslim you just have too see the recent killings of Muslim. The ban of beef, the ink throwing on Pakistani Muslim and also Indian Muslims. Forcing Muslim too become Hindus. @Xzone is really living in a X zone since he think India is the most safe place for Muslim. Abeee read the news, Indian Muslim are calling the decision by Muhammed Ali Jinnah right. They have occupied Kashmir and killing them left and right. They have a blockade in nepal. Modi did a massacre in 2002 where thousand of Muslim died. Modi supports bombing on Palestine where INNOCENT MUSLIM DIES NOT TERRORIST. But nooooooo here Xzone and others want too live in a lie that India is the safest country for all…. The only thing safe right now is Cows other like humans not at all.
Wake up and get a life Mr. Sin Ha. Let others live with Liberty. Look at world around you every one is gone too far and you are still stuck with your OLD school ideas. Apply these limits in your own family not outside. i think even your family wont listen to you.
Finally friendly advise is Live Happy and let others live happily. Life is short JUST ENJOY and CHILL.
