Kangana Ranaut Slams B'wood Celebs For Staying Silent On Sarpanch Ajay Pandita's Killing

Kangana Ranaut lashed out at the Bollywood celebrities for their 'selective secularism'. She slammed the tinsel town celebs for remaining silent over the killing of Sarpanch Ajay Pandita.

New Delhi: Terrorists shot dead Ajay Pandita, Sarpanch of Lokbowan Halqa in Jammu and Kashmir’s Anantnag district on Monday (June 8). Several users have condemned killing of the Sarpanch on social media. Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut, who is known for being vocal on many nation related issues, has requested PM Narendra Modi to take stringent action against the ‘atrocities done on Kashmiri Pandits’. The ‘Queen’ actress also slammed the Bollywood celebs for remaining silent over the killing of Ajay Pandita. In a video shared by Kangana’s team on Twitter and Instagram, the ‘Judgementall Hai Kya’ actress can be seen holding a placard in her hands. The message in the placard reads, “I Am Hindustan, I am Ashamed. Justice for Ajay Pandita. Murder in Anantnag. Jammu and Kashmir.” Kangana expressed her displeasure over Bollywood celebs taking a selective stand and not lending their voices to all the issues. Her team shared the video along with the caption, ''#KanganaRanaut calls out selective secularism of Bollywood and so-called liberals and urges @narendramodi @PMOIndia to take strict action against atrocities done on #KashmiriPandits and their safe return to their homeland. #AjayPandita #JusticeForAjayPandita.''

Veteran actor Anupam Kher offered his condolence to Ajay's family and expressed his grief over the Sarpanch's death. ''Deeply saddened & angry at the merciless killing of the lone #KashmiriPandit sarpanch #AjayPandita in Anantnag yesterday. My heartfelt condolences to his family. There is an obvious silence from the usual suspects who cry their heart hoarse otherwise. #JusticeForAjayPandita,'' Kher tweeted.

On the professional front, Kangana Ranaut will be next seen in former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Jayalalithaa's biopic ‘Thalaivi’. The film has been making waves ever since the makers released the first look poster of Kangana. The ‘Panga’ actress also has ‘Tejas’ and ‘Dhaakad’ in her kitty. She will also direct ‘Aparajita Ayodhya’, which is based on Ram Mandir case. Watch this space for more updates!
