In the midst of heightened tension between India and Pakistan, a few Bollywood celebs have spoken up for peace. Those who tweeted for peace included Soni Razdan, Swara Bhaskar and Pooja Bhatt.

Actor Soni Razdan, who recently starred in Raazi as Sahmat's mother who marries her daughter to a Pakistani army major, put a post on Instagram saying how it was the job of artists to look where others don't.

She shared a quote by Oscar winning director Alfonso Cuaron which read:

"As artists it is our job to look where others don't. This responsibility becomes much more important in times when we are being encouraged to look away " - Alfonso Cuaron.

Swara Bhaskar, Soni Razdan and Pooja Bhatt have all spoken against war.

Championing the cause of peace and brotherhood, actor Swara Bhaskar blasted Pakistani actor and Bigg Boss 4 participant Veena Malik for her deplorable comment of captured IAF Wing Commander Abhinandan Varthaman.

Reacting to Veena, Swara said: "Veena ji.. Shame on you & ur sick mindset. Your glee is just gross! Our officer is a hero- brave, gracious & dignified in the face of capture. At least some decency from that major in you army who was questioning #WingCommanderAbhinandan or the many Pakistanis suing 4 peace #sick.

Mahesh Bhatt's elder daughter Pooja put up a poignant note of what war does to children. She wrote: "You can't hug your kids with nuclear arms.

She also wrote about meeting a Vietnamese and what he had to say about India and Pakistan and the possibility of war between them. She wrote: "I was talking to someone from Vietnam and telling them about the situation back home. He looked at me with sadness and wisdom in his eyes and said does India & Pakistan realise nobody wins a war?' Who would know that more than Vietnam?

Normally nobody wishes for war.
But these circumstances are different.
We are sitting ducks here.
We have a better and bigger army, yet Pakistan keeps on attacking us
This has been going on since 1947!

Pakistan is a hub of terrorism and needs to be put in place
and peace talks have NOT worked since 70+ years.
It means they will not work.

We need to retaliate strongly and only solution is war.

And its a war on terrorism and pak govt who supports terrorists.

Yes soldiers are innocents, but what to do.! Adharma is going on now.
We cannot keep quiet and hope for peace. its not working .

No one wins a war
i am glad more people are showing guts to say it up and loud

while what has been lost is tragic..let us not invite more tragedy for millions more..so so much for both the sides is lost in a war

with that..yes again..pak needs to get rid of all the terrorists hiding in there..there has to be end of terrorism..period

imran khan has made open gesture of peace by returning the IAF officer tom to India..hoping he eradicates every bit of terrorism hiding in pakistan..there has to be an end to it!

its more like they dont want to make things worse and invite international ire.
they had no bloody reason to capture him in the 1st place.

Pak is a coward. who believe in cowardly tactics

I know I am going to get a lot of brickbats for this post but why is opposing war bad? Why should we not hope for peace? Because if there is war even if 95% of the slain are Pakistani soldiers, at least 5% will be ours too. Why should we demand a war where there is a possibility of even one Indian dying?

b) she is british and self confessed illiterate in politics and how she has chosen to not speak on anything related to such matters..spoke about it during GB promotions

c) only? i did not see anything from deepika either..may be i am wrong
