Bollywood director Karan Johar has decided not to work with Pakistani artistes.
In a video message, Karan Johar said: “I beseech you to know one thing, that over 300 Indian people in my crew have put their blood, sweat and tears in Ae Dil Hai Mushkil and I don’t think it’s fair to them to face any kind of turbulence on account of other fellow Indians.”
He said he would not engage talent from Pakistan given the circumstances. His message came days after hundreds of cinema owners decided not to screen films with Pakistani artistes to in the wake of Uri attack last month.
Indian extremist leader Raj Thackeray had threatened to vandalise cinemas that screen Johar’s film.
