Prominent figures from Pakistan’s entertainment industry have voiced strong opposition to India’s recent air strikes targeting terror bases in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) as part of “Operation Sindoor.” These celebrities described the mission as an act of aggression and branded it as lacking bravery.
Popular actress Mahira Khan, often seen as the face of Pakistani cinema internationally, reshared a tweet originally posted by author Fatima Bhutto criticizing the military action. In a heartfelt message on her Instagram story, Mahira wrote, cowardly!!! May Allah protect our country, may better sense prevail. Ameen."
Actor Hania Aamir, another influential voice among Pakistan’s youth, offered a terse but pointed response on her Instagram story, labeling the move simply as “Cowardly.” Her post follows growing discontent among Pakistani artists after Instagram accounts of several celebrities were geo-blocked in India. This came in the aftermath of the April 22 terrorist assault in Pahalgam, Jammu & Kashmir, which left 26 people dead. Affected accounts, including those of Mahira Khan, Fawad Khan, and singer Ali Zafar, now show a message indicating that access has been restricted due to Indian legal compliance.
In contrast, Indian authorities have stood firmly behind the military action. Government officials confirmed that the strikes were executed with surgical precision during nighttime hours and specifically targeted terrorist infrastructure. They insisted the strikes were restrained in nature and not intended to provoke a broader conflict.
The official account of the Indian Army announced the operation with a post that read, “Justice is served. Jai Hind,” signaling satisfaction over the outcome. Top Indian ministers, including Kiren Rijiju and Bandi Sanjay Kumar, publicly lauded the armed forces, commending them for avenging the lives lost in the Pahalgam attack.
Intelligence sources report that Operation Sindoor led to the neutralization of at least 17 militants, with another 60 injured. The attacks were carried out with high accuracy and struck terror training and logistics hubs in multiple locations such as Kotli, Muzaffarabad, Ahmadpur Sharqia, Faisalabad, and Muridke. Military officials were quick to clarify that no Pakistani defense establishments were hit, and the scope of the mission was deliberately limited to avoid further escalation.
As tensions mount, public reactions from both nations remain deeply polarized. While India hails the move as a necessary retaliation, many in Pakistan see it as an unjustified provocation.
