Mumbai, August 6: Actors Aamir Khan and Kareena Kapoor Khan are currently promoting their upcoming film Laal Singh Chaddha, set to release in theaters on August 11. Amidst the promotions, #BoycottLaalSinghChaddha recently was trending on social media.
The BJP leader recalled the time when Aamir Khan had said that India has become intolerant in 2015 and he along with his then wife Kiran Rao wanted to leave the country for the safety of their children.
She said that Aamir Khan’s PK was not just anti-Hindu but also insulted Hindu Gods. She recalled that at that time Hindu organisations had demanded a ban on PK.
She added that Aamir Khan, who was under the radar of public opposition, came forward with an inspirational movie called Laal Singh Chaddha, but he is not in a position to inspire people at all.
Vijayashanthi said, “Boycott Laal Singh Chaddha is awakening everyone on social media against this movie with the hashtag.”
Aamir Khan’s Laal Singh Chaddha is the Hindi remake of Tom Hanks’ Forrest Gump and also stars Kareena Kapoor, Mona Singh and Naga Chaitanya in lead roles.
As a respone, Aamir Khan requested people not to boycott his film. He said that if people think he doesn’t like India, then they are mistaken.
Now, actress turned politician Vijayashanthi has called out Aamir Khan on Twitter. In her tweets, she called him out for his past comment about growing intolerance in India and for his ‘blind opposition to the Bharatiya Janata Party.’
The BJP leader recalled the time when Aamir Khan had said that India has become intolerant in 2015 and he along with his then wife Kiran Rao wanted to leave the country for the safety of their children.
“How many great positions non-Hindus have got in the government and private systems of India? Before, after, and today, this country respects everyone with religious harmony. A big example of this is the Khan trio, which is receiving due respect in Bollywood, including Aamir. But, people who know the truth have rejected Aamir’s comments and have also boycotted the commercial products of which he is the brand ambassador,” she said in a Tweet.
She added that Aamir Khan, who was under the radar of public opposition, came forward with an inspirational movie called Laal Singh Chaddha, but he is not in a position to inspire people at all.
