Rupali Ganguly SLAMS Fawad Khan's remarks on Operation Sindoor: 'You working in Indian films was..'

Television star Rupali Ganguly has sparked a wave of online support after calling out Pakistani actor Fawad Khan for his remarks on India’s recent military strike, Operation Sindoor. The controversy began when Khan condemned the operation, calling it a “shameful attack.” In response, Ganguly took to X (formerly Twitter) and wrote bluntly, “You working in Indian films was also ‘shameful’ for us.”

Her remark immediately went viral, drawing strong reactions and applause from thousands of users who felt Khan’s statement was both offensive and hypocritical.

Operation Sindoor was a precision military operation launched by the Indian armed forces targeting terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) and parts of Pakistan. Conducted in response to growing cross-border threats and terror activity, the operation aimed to neutralize militant strongholds without harming civilians. It was widely regarded within India as a calculated and effective strategic move that reinforced national security objectives. The operation was seen as a bold assertion of India's counterterrorism policy, and received widespread domestic praise for its swift and decisive execution.

Fawad Khan’s attempt to discredit the operation provoked outrage among Indian citizens and public figures alike. Many pointed out the irony of Khan criticizing India despite having worked and gained immense popularity in Indian cinema. Ganguly’s tweet echoed the sentiments of countless social media users who condemned Khan’s statement as disrespectful and out of line.

Online, users rallied behind Ganguly, calling her post “bold,” “truthful,” and “patriotic.” The comment has become a focal point of national conversation surrounding respect, loyalty, and the broader implications of international criticism during times of military action.

Rupali Ganguly’s statement has resonated with many Indians who view Operation Sindoor as a justified and necessary step in securing the nation’s safety. The backlash against Khan underscores a broader unwillingness to tolerate what is seen as external interference or criticism in matters of national defense. With tensions high and patriotism surging, Ganguly’s words have struck a chord — firm, direct, and unapologetic.
