‘Muslim Actors Facing Life Threats’: Pakistan Ex-Minister Fawad Chaudhry On Saif Ali Khan Attack

<p>The attack on Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan is gaining religious colours now with former Pakistan minister Fawad Chaudhry citing the incident to claim that the Muslim community’s actors are under threat. “Muslim actors are facing serious life threats since the rise of Hindu Mahasabha. Pakistan must rise for the rights of Indian Muslims,” the aide of former PM Imran Khan posted on X.</p>

<p>When an X user replied that Chaudhry should help Saif migrate to Pakistan, the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Shareef leader said: “Why India is His country you should leave elsewhere if you have problem with Indian Muslims [<em>sic</em>].”</p>
<h2><strong>Karni Sena’s ‘Islamaisation’ Comment</strong></h2>
<p>In India, Hindu religious organisation Karni Sena too, made a similar claim: “Salman Khan and Saif Ali Khan have been targeted because filmmakers are being instructed to target Hindu actors and not give them work in the industry,” Sengar said.</p>
