Shameful of our actors to not show support for Pak troops: Shaan

KARACHI: Shaan Shahid lashed out at fellow Pakistani actors and actresses for not speaking up for Pakistan Army during the confrontation with India across the Line of Control.

In a Facebook post from his official page, Shaan labelled actors who worked in the Indian film industry as 'one film wonders' who did not speak in favour of Pakistani troops because they 'want to hide under the money and little fame they made from India'. 

This is not the first time that Shaan has publicly criticized Pakistani artists. Last year, Khuda Kay Liye actor was embroiled in a war of words with Pakistani actress Mawra Hocaine, after she had voiced her support for the movie Phantom which starred Katrina Kaif and Saif Ali Khan.

A host of Bollywood actors and actresses, including Amitabh Bachchan, Riteish Deshmukh, Akshay Kumar and Raveena Tandon as well as others, tweeted in favour of the Indian army for conducting 'surgical strikes' against alleged terrorists in Pakistan.  

Is Shaan Shahid's tirade directed towards Kapoor and Sons actor Fawad Khan or Raees actress Mahira Khan? If so, how will these actors and actresses respond to the actor, given that he has labelled them 'one film wonders'?
