Problem is Tom Alter was shown as evil gora trying to break India and planning all sorts of operations and games but no one ever cared.

Why are Hindus getting offended too much?

But then the questions is Are Hindus the only one who would have reacted? Dont Muslims react too? So even they have a point if they are complaining.

If the wound of Hindus being shown as terrorist was not enough they rub in the salt of them doing it against Pakistan. lol

What a drama...now Indian and Pakistanis are fighting ..oh we are not terrorists.

While Tom Alter's roh is resting in peace.

I am 50-50. Yeah I know its a movie but they also have right to complaint. Muslims do it all the time and I favor them there too when they are stereotyped.

She should be ashamed of herself for participating in a narrative that frames Hindus as terrorists that then try to pin the blame on Pakistanis. Fiction doesn't mean you wade into controversial political topics and try to pass around flagrantly wrong information that can be damaging to an entire community. These trashy shows are watched by people who don't know any better and would buy into this type of propaganda that is not even slightly true.

So True!!!

@this is the main thing... terrorist can be from any religion or nationality but trying to show Indian framing Pakistan, that too during Kashmir summit is the most sick thing...esp when everyone knows how sensitive the Kashmir matter is..

and for those who say she was bound by contract and had no say in the script, @anonymous39 put it rightly, If she is on the influential list, that means she had to power to amend the script, if not, then she doesnt deserve to be on that list...

Misdirected anger...Priyanka is probably bound by a contract and she is too small a fish to go against the bigwigs in USA entertainment industry..I am no PC fan and I criticize her all the time ,,,,,,but I don't think it was in her hand to change anything from that episode...must have been getting stuck between a rock and hard place.

Cant believe my eyes😲 dil jeet liya aaj to

yes. As if the minorities are all dudh ke dhule 😛

I love how people conveniently ignore the Godhra train burning while concentrate on the riots afterwards

Its like minorities can do whatever they want but if Hindus retaliate, then they are termed saffron terrorists.😳

As an Indian American, I'm glad ABC apologized. It was an illogical and unnecessary storyline that propagated a false narrative.

Even though it is a fictional show, if anyone thinks ppl aren't stupid enough to be influenced or straight up believe what they see on TV, then maybe u dont live here.
