According to the http://www.pinkvilla.com
Following the tragic terror attack in Pahalgam, Jammu & Kashmir, where 28 civilians were brutally killed, there has been a wave of anger and mourning across India. This tragic event has also ignited a fierce backlash against Pakistani artists in the country, particularly targeting the upcoming film Abeer Gulal, starring Pakistani actor Fawad Khan and Bollywood actress Vaani Kapoor.
Audience Anger Boils Over
The Indian audience, deeply disturbed by the terror attack, is demanding that no Pakistani actors or films be allowed to release in India. As a result, Fawad Khan’s comeback film Abeer Gulal, a romantic drama, is at the center of a growing controversy, with many calling for a complete ban on its release.
Bollywood Reacts to the Attack
Prominent Bollywood celebrities including Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Sanjay Dutt, and Ajay Devgn have taken to social media to express their condolences and outrage, condemning the attack as a horrific act against humanity. Their messages reflect the nation’s collective grief and have added momentum to the ongoing discussion around cultural exchange with Pakistan.

Film Faces Uncertain Future
Abeer Gulal was scheduled to release on May 5 and had recently unveiled a teaser showcasing a unique chemistry between Fawad Khan and Vaani Kapoor. The film was meant to mark Fawad Khan’s return to Bollywood after a long hiatus. He had previously starred in hit films like Khoobsurat, Kapoor & Sons, and Ae Dil Hai Mushkil. His absence from the Indian film scene had lasted several years, largely due to ongoing political tensions.
However, with reports suggesting a possible Pakistani link to the Pahalgam attack, public sentiment has shifted dramatically. The demand to bar entry of Pakistani artists into India and stop the screening of their films is gaining traction across social and digital platforms.
As Abeer Gulal nears its release date, the film’s future now appears to hang in the balance, caught in the crossfire of art, politics, and public emotion.
