“For an artist, their work is their religion. One cannot hold an artist responsible for their religion. Why are we not picking on someone who have actively done something wrong?”
She added that the families of Indian soldiers do not care about actor of which nationality comes and works here and they are concerned about the safety of their sons and the rest of the country so, this should be highlighted rather than the debate on Pakistani artistes.
“(Families of Indian soldiers) are not concerned about who is coming into the country, doing a movie… and going away.
They are concerned about keeping rest of their sons and rest of their soldiers safe and that needs to be our focus.
“We always lose our focus because that makes noise.
Because people talk about it. Because the media carries it.
Because the press writes about it. This is not at all an issue. This is entertainment. This is business. People buy ticket, watch a movie for three hours and come away. Done.
