Following the controversy related to the ban of Pakistani artists in India, famous Indian director Karan Johar broke his silence over the matter.
Johar, who also helped Pakistani artists such as Mahira and Fawad make an entry into Bollywood, talked over the matter in a TV show. He confessed that he feels 'vulnerable' discussing the matter openly.
He said that his heart bleeds over the Uri attack and the loss of life, although linking it to a ban on artists from across the border makes no sense.
"But this is not a solution. I don't believe it is. The larger forces have to come together and sort the situation and this cannot be banning talent or art," he said as reported by DNA India.
He said that his message of spreading love and he should be allowed to propagate the message.
Earlier, Indian extremist party Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) had given Pakistani actors 48 hours to leave the country. It later on said the release of the movies starring Fawad Khan and Mahira Khan would be blocked in Maharashtra.
Fawad Khan stars in Ae Dil Hai Muskhil which is produced by Karan Johar while Mahira Khan stars opposite Shah Rukh Khan in Raees.
