There r at least 60 Muslim celebrities in Juhu area.. I call upon Mumbaiya ppl to name some of them.

Juhu asks money not religion.

There are certain areas in India, very few, that have these kinda issues.

Shabana Azmi spoke about it once and Saif also.

He wanted to buy a flat in Juhu and was denied.

But he says he understands coz there are a group of people living in that building, all vegetarians, and perhaps they wouldn't want someone cooking meat in their building, so he understands why.

😕😕

does that exist??😕

i'm the only one vegetarian in my house

thank god my parents still accept me

Is being a non veg and muslim same thing coz one is eating pref of a person and the other is religion. There are many hindus who are also non veg so why bring up religion biasness.

In every locality , in every religion both progressive so also regressive , both religious fanatics so also liberal people are there. Yes it is reality that these celebrity sometime express they face the difficulty for flat starting from Imran hasmi to saif to sabna. It is a reality in certain building they denied their basic right when those society members object for flat owner from other religion.

Saif isn't the only one who spoke about it guys.

Shabana Azmi and Emraan Hashmi have recounted several incidents. Why would they all lie?

Religious fanatics exist in every country, so why deny it?

All are same called discrimination on the basis of preference. If you r prefer non veg then certain building were there which basically constitute pure marwaris , they will not allow you to live there. Discrimination moves in round way 😆

These things happen. Why did you have to turn it into a competition?

Just coz a muslim is denied property in one area and spoke about it once, no need to turn it into a competition.

Why not just stand up against prejudice, period, rather than competing who is more prejudiced? At the end of the day, they're all wrong.

However, it gets a bit more tricky when minorities face these things simply due to power dynamics.

Similar to how in the US we have Black Student Association, Asian Student Association, but no White Student Association.

Whites are the majority, so the context for them is slightly different than the minorities.

Also similar situation is immigrant pockets in the run down parts of a city in the states. Whites or majorities wouldn't wanna move there anyway.
But it's a different ballgame if a minority is denied property in an area dominated by whites (majority)

Similar to your Muslim area (marginalized/less affluent) compared to Juhu (inhabited by majority) and perhaps the reason Saif wanted to buy it coz it's a good area.
