New Delhi: Amid the ongoing violence in Bangladesh, Bollywood celebs Kangana Ranaut, Raveena Tandon, Sonam Kapoor and others have prayed for the neighbouring country. Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, who governed the South Asian country for 15 years, stepped down as prime minister and fled the country on Monday amid widespread protests. What started as a demonstration against a job quota system eventually escalated into a mass movement calling for her removal from power. Assaults on Hindu minorities have surged since she left the country.

Actress Raveena Tandon took to X to address the recent violence and persecution faced by minority communities in Bangladesh. She wrote, "I express my solidarity with the victims and call for an immediate end to this violence. It is essential that Global leaders and influencers, especially from India, speak out against these atrocities and work together to protect the rights and dignity of all people. We must not remain silent in the face of such suffering."

Deeply saddened and disturbed by the recent events in Bangladesh, where minority communities are facing severe violence and persecution. These Shameful attacks are a stark reminder of the importance of standing up for justice and humanity, no matter where we are.

Sonam Kapoor also took to Instagram stories to address the situation, writing, "This is horrible, let's all pray for Bangladeshi people."

Sonu Sood tweeted about being responsible as a citizen to help Bangladesh. He wrote, "We should do our best to bring back all our fellow Indians from Bangladesh, so they get a good life here. This is not just the responsibility of our Government which is doing its best but also all of us."

Actor-turned-politician Kangana Ranaut used X to criticise Muslim-majority nations for their lack of security.

Bharat is the original motherland of all Islamic Republics around us. We are honoured and flattered that honourable Prime Minister of Bangladesh feels safe in Bharat but all those who live in India and keep asking why Hindu Rashtra? Why Ram Rajya? Well it is evident why!!!
