Indian actor Naseeruddin Shah has criticised “sections of Indian Muslims celebrating the Taliban’s return to power in Afghanistan”, and called it rather dangerous.
In a recent video, the Mohra actor drew distinctions between ‘Hindustani Islam’ and what is practised in other parts of the world.
“Even as the Taliban’s return to power in Afghanistan is a cause for concern for the whole world, celebrations of the barbarians by some sections of Indian Muslims is no less dangerous,” Shah said in a video shared on social media.
A Wednesday actor went on to say that those who are celebrating the revival of Taliban, should question themselves, “if they want a reformed, modern Islam (jiddat pasandi modernity), or live with the old barbarism (vaishipan) of the past few centuries.”
Shah also differentiated between what he called “Hindustani Islam” and what is actually practised in other parts of the world.
He added, “May God not bring a time when it changes so much that we cannot even recognise it. He mentioned his own personal relationship with God, and that he doesn’t need political religion. “I am an Indian Muslim and as Mirza Ghalib said years ago, my relationship with God is informal. I don’t need political religion,” he said.
The Quddusi Sahab Ki Bewah writer Fasih Bari Khan recently appeared in Wo Wala Show and made shocking revelations about 7 Din Mohabbat in. He also revealed that Mahira Khan and Sheheryar Munawar were not his first choices for the film.
The writer, who has a reputation of creating unusual hits with his knack for storytelling revealed that it was the miscasting in 7 Din Mohabbat In which spoiled the humour, turning it into a blunder.
According to Fasih, he always had a bubbly actor, especially Sajal Aly in mind for the role that landed into the Raees diva’s lap. He said: “Mahira is a good actor but the character was not for her. I always had Sajal in mind while writing the character. For the male lead, I had someone like Mohib Mirza in my mind but then that couldn’t happen as well.”
The writer had to change the script on demand and hence the story went haywire.
Known for his unique humour and satire, he stated that if he went on working on a film in the future, he would make sure he does it independently to save his film from tanking at the box office.
The Ghisi Piti Mohabbat writer claimed it was the makers who brought Mahira and Sheheryar on board.
