When certain flourishing Indian citizens are not able to criticize the attacks or the Pak PM on news debates ,then I don't expect a Pak citizen to do it either! When your own house is not in order how can you point fingers at others!

Yes... What is he afraid of? He can never bring himself to condemn terrorists acts...

He never finds India unsafe or intolerant when there are terrorists attacks... He keeps his mouth shut...

He didn't make any comments about safety during series of terrorists attacks in Mumbai since the 90s, so many killed and injured ..

From the 12 March 1993 attack, when series of 13 bombs went off across Bombay in a single day, killing 257

To the November 2008 (26/11) terrorist attack and many attacks in between (and this is just Mumbai city alone), he never said anything then

He was not even scared enough to wanting to leave the country when he was threatened by the underworld

Suddenly in 2015 he found the country intolerant and unsafe

when govt dont even seem to give two shits and work towards a harmonious environment, why should the responsibilities go to actors and celebs to deal with it. why is their stand so imp? do u eat your rice, based on which type of rice they consume. stupidity at best.

I feel bad for them! 😆

It's such a torture giving opinions on politics and/or religions. Even as a non-celebrity, these two topics are such controversial topics that many would rather stay away from discussing opnely rather than getting into fights unnecessary. So I can imagine what these celebrities must have to go through when they have to discuss such topics and then theirs views being discussed by millions of people. But I really think Khans should stay away from discussing it anymore. Already SRK and Aamir got in trouble for it. Salman too once with some tweets. Hopefully, they learned their lessons.

I believe in freedom of speech and speaking your mind on important issues. Yes politics can get controversial. But everyone is entitled to an opinion and has a right to voice it. Actors in these situations can seriously damage themselves due to the controversy. Boy was he brave.

Any Sympathy, concern tweet ?

Your demands are increasing. You asked for one tweet where anyone wished their Indian fans for Diwali. I gave you three such celebrities. Your exact words:

"Show me a single tweet ( dig his old ones or mahira's or Ali zafar's ) where they have wished on Diwali , Dussehra , Indian IDay , showed their sympathy for ppl when natural disasters have happened in India ( for example chennai floods ) "

coz he/she is heavily biased. he didn't even acknowledge that he was wrong.

Wow... Good for him

In this clip you posted he says

"Terrorists has no religion, he's not doing it for religion, even though he thinks so... Every country including Pakistan is affected by terrorism... We should suppress anger and not act in haste."

But even then being the brave person that he is, did not express alarm, despondency, a deep sense of insecurity and fear and being afraid of opening newspaper everyday, being so afraid of raising his child here and wanting to leave...

That he would do much later

Again he is bravely exercising his freedom of expression, it's those of us who criticize him are cowards and have no right to freedom of expression
