Recently in a rather bizarre response to the attack at a military base in Indian-occupied Kashmir, an Indian journalist has urged Bollywood to ban Fawad Khan. Kolkata based journalist Soumyadipta Banerjee took to twitter on Tuesday calling for the film industry to boycott the Pakistani actor. “Ban Pakistani artists the same way they have banned you. This is not the time to promote culture,” he said, while calling for Bollywood to unite against Pakistan.
“It’s time for Bollywood to stand with the jawans of this country and ban Pakistani actors like Fawad Khan. Please respond to #UriAttack,” he further added.
Along his remarks, other journalists have also now written openly to Fawad. They have clearly said, "Go back to Pakistan."
At the end of the letter they added, "Take care and let us know when you are getting your air tickets to Karachi done. We plan to give you a grand farewell."
But Bollywood has not responded to this yet.
According to reports, Fawad Khan has now paired up with Salman Khan recently. Salman, who is currently busy wrapping Kabir Khan’s Tubelight, will take a call to begin producing Juganbandi or Nitin Kakkar’s movie, only after his latest one nears the finishing line.
After Ae Dil Hain Mushkil, the actor will be seen in Raat Baaki opposite Katrina Kaif, followed by Salman Khan Films' next with Nitin Kakkar if everything goes right. Rolling of the film will be done next year itself, as early as possible with the dates available for the actor.
