As people continue to block and call out Hollywood celebrities for not raising their voices about the plight of Palestinians, actor Saheefa Jabbar Khattak questioned what everyone was doing about Bollywood celebrities as they remained silent about Israel’s aggression in Gaza.
“What are we doing about Bollywood? Our neighbouring country, where we are eager to work, and where we speak so highly of them in our interviews, NONE of them have spoken against the ongoing genocide,” Khattak highlighted in an Instagram story.
The Rafta Rafta actor urged people to stop hyping up Bollywood celebrities and wishing them on their birthdays, adding that the Indian government had banned Pakistani artists from working ‘for them’. She continued that people from Pakistan were rarely offered good roles in Bollywood, and that during “this genocide, the whole of India is silent”.
“It’s time that we focus on our craft, make better films and dramas, and stop seeking validation from them or anyone.”
