Pakistan compromised India’s national security and attacked the dignity by openly threatening and humiliating the nation, claimed the actress. Kangana urged the government to take decisive action against such a reprehensible act of terror. Ranaut also stated that people who are presently thinking or ’lecturing’ on peace should be painted black, put atop a donkey and slapped by everyone on the streets. The Queen actress even shared her sentiments on Javed Akhtar and Shabana Azmi turning down an invitation by the Karachi Arts Council in the aftermath of the Pulawama terror attack. She stated that it was people like them who promoted Bharat tere Tukade honge ((India, you shall be divided) collectives. She declared the couple anti-national, questioning why they encouraged inter-country cultural exchange in the first place when Pakistani artists had been banned following the surgical strikes on Uri in 2016. “The film industry is full of such anti-nationals who boost the enemy’s morals in many ways but right now is the time to focus on decisive actions… Pakistan ban is not the focus, Pakistan destruction is,” In.com quoted Kangana as saying. Shabana Azmi was prompt to reply to her allegation She criticised Kangana for making a personal attack. “You really think at a time like this a personal attack on me can be of any significance when the entire country stands as one in our grief and in condemning this dastardly Pulwama attack? May God bless her,” stated Shabana to the publication.
