New Delhi: The deadly terror attack on the vehicles carrying security officials in Jammu and Kashmir’s Pulwama district on Thursday has left the country in shock. The attack has claimed the life of over 40 Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) troopers. Leading Bollywood celebs including Amitabh Bachchan, Salman Khan, Aamir Khan and Shah Rukh Khan have condemned the attacks. Kangana Ranaut, who set the cash registers jingling with her recent release ‘Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi’, has cancelled the success party of the film.

The makers of the film were planning to throw a success party but the actress has cancelled the celebratory bash in solidarity with the martyred security officials.
Kangana, while talking to an entertainment portal, said that strong and decisive actions should be taken against Pakistan.
"Pakistan has not only violated our nation’s security they have also attacked our dignity by openly threatening and humiliating us, we need to take decisive actions or else our silence will be misunderstood for our cowardice. Bharat is bleeding today, the killing of our sons is like a dagger in our gut, anyone who lectures about non-violence and peace at this time should be painted black, put on a donkey and slapped by everyone on the streets,” the ‘Queen’ actress told Pinkvilla.

When quizzed about Shabana Azmi and Javed Akhtar cancelling their Karachi event, Kangana said that they shouldn’t have organized an event in Pakistan when their artists have been banned in India post the Uri attack.
"People like Shabana Azmi calling for halt on cultural exchange, they are the ones who promote Bharat tere Tukade honge gangs.... why did they organize an event in Karachi in the first place when Pakistani artists have been banned after Uri attacks and now they are trying to save face. Film industry is full of such anti-nationals who boost enemies morals in many ways but right now is the time to focus on decisive actions. Pakistan ban is not the focus, Pakistan destruction is," Kangana further told the portal.
