Javed Akhtar Reacts To Hijab Controversy; Know What Other Bollywood Celebrities Say
New Delhi: Bollywood writer and lyricist Javed Akhtar on Thursday expressed disgust over the Karnataka government’s ban on hijab in schools and colleges and the protests thereafter.
He took to Twitter to condemn the act, writing, “I have never been in favour of Hijab or Burqa. I still stand by that but at the same time I have nothing but deep contempt for these mobs of hooligans who are trying to intimidate a small group of girls and that too unsuccessfully. Is this their idea of “MANLINESS” . What a pity (sic).”
Take a look at Javed Akhtar’s tweet:
Earlier, Kamal Haasan had also condemned the act. He wrote, “What is happening in Karnataka is provoking unrest. A religious poison wall is being erected among the students who are not lying. What is happening in the neighbouring state beyond the single wall should not come to Tamil Nadu. It is time for the progressive forces to be more careful (sic).”
Richa Chadha wrote, “Raise your sons better! A bunch of ugly, cowards attacking a lone woman in a pack and feeling proud of it ? WHAT LOSERS! Shameful. They’ll be jobless, more frustrated and penniless in a few years. What poor upbringing! No sympathy, no redemption for them (sic).”
Swara Bhasker also reacted, “Shameful state of affairs..(sic).”
