Famed singer Abhijeet calls for Pakistan actors to be kicked out of India

The Indian vocalist lashes out at producers for casting Pakistani artists in Bollywood projects

In the wake of the recent Uri attack in which militants killed 17 Indian army soldiers, several Bollywood stars expressed their anger on social media.

After Salman Khan’s father's inappropriate remarks, Indian singer Abhijeet Bhattacharya followed suit on Thursday, in the most bizarre way possible.

The Dhoom Taana singer lashed out at producer Karan Johar and the veteran filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt for roping in Pakistani artists for Bollywood projects.



The singer took to Twitter to rant about the Uri attack, calling Bollywood to kick Pakistani artists out of the country.

KJo’s love affair with Fawad Khan is evident as he roped the actor in his several forthcoming projects. The producer even invited Fawad as his first guest on the new season of his famed show Koffee with Karan.

Meanwhile, Mahesh is also known for his endeavours to bring India and Pakistan close through entertainment.

The veteran filmmaker has been working alongside Pakistani superstar Humayun Saeed on a joint venture named Dushman with the expectation that it will dissolve the rising tensions between the two countries.

Dushman is a path breaking tale of love & friendship of an Indian & a Pakistani. This brave tale will be shot in India, Pakistan & UK.

Abhijeet has been notorious for making controversial statements and using foul language.

Earlier, he made headlines for abusing a female journalist on Twitter, and for calling the victims of the hit-and-run case ‘dogs’, for sleeping on the road.
