'Cowardice': Avinash Mishra Bashes Indian Actors For Silence On Operation Sindoor
This comes a day after the Ministry of Defence confirmed that the Indian Air Force had hit multiple terror infrastructure sites in PoK and Pakistan’s Bahawalpur region.
Actor Avinash Mishra has lashed out at Indian actors for not taking a stand for their country and speaking up in support of Operation Sindoor. Recently, Avinash took to his Instagram stories and questioned the Indian “celebrities" for their silence. He mentioned that even though Pakistani actors are backing terrorism, Indian actors have remained mum.
“Celebrities from across the border – who built their fame on Indian audiences – now calling India’s action against terrorism ‘shameful’ & ‘cowardly’ is the height of hypocrisy," Avinash wrote and then added, “Where are our celebrities now? If you cannot speak up for your country just to protect your ‘brand’ or follower count, don’t ever pretend to represent India. Silence isn’t neutral. It’s cowardice."
