‘When will this love affair with Pakistan end?’: Kangana Ranaut questions Bollywood

She added, “Whether it is their films, their statements, or their interviews, when will this love affair with Pakistan end? They seem perpetually obsessed with Pakistan. I want to know: so many years have passed since Partition, yet why doesn’t this love story come to an end? When will Bollywood’s love story with Pakistan finally conclude? They are answerable for this.”

Earlier, Kangana had taken to her Instagram Stories to take a dig at Naseeruddin Shah. Writing in Hindi, she said, “The truth is we are all loyal to someone or the other, but I am proud that I am dedicated to fighting for the country that feeds me. Meanwhile, Naseeruddin Shah earns his livelihood in this country and fights for the neighbouring country.”

Many linked her remarks to Main Vaapas Aaunga, in which Naseeruddin Shah’s character hails from Sargodha in Pakistan but is forced to leave his home following Partition.

Naseeruddin Shah had earlier taken a dig at Bollywood actors for not speaking up in support of students protesting at Jantar Mantar.

In an interview with The Wire, the actor said, “They’ll do it when their conscience tells them to. There’s a saying: a dog with a bone in its mouth can’t bark. As soon as the bone drops out of their mouth, or it breaks their teeth, then they will bark.”
