Saboor Aly Slams Javed Akhtar For His Comments On 26/11 Mumbai Terror Attack; Says, ‘Apnay Talents Ko Tou Kabhi Itni Izzat Nahi Di’

Renowned lyricist and screenwriter Javed Akhtar made it to the headlines earlier this week for reminding Pakistan that India hasn’t forgotten about the 26/11 Mumbai attacks. While many hailed for it, Pakistani actress Saboor Ali Ansari has reacted strongly towards the incident. Taking to her Instagram stories, the actress slammed the older celebrity for his harsh words.

She starts her post by saying that people who don’t respect themselves, cannot be respected by others. Saboor continues stating that while there are no boundaries or borders set for art, one should draw the line for their own respect. The 29-year-old actress further states that people should not be hailing someone who is visiting a country and disrespecting their culture.

Is mulk main baray baray funkaar Aise Chalay gayay jin k pass apnay aakhri waqt pe ilaaj tak k paysay nahi thay. Tab Kahan jaatay hain yeh talent k qadardaan log? Hamaray dil you itnay baray hain k kher khairat se wapis bhaijtay hai or chaayay bhi pilaatay hain.”

For the unversed, Akhtar had attended an event in Lahore when he was asked, “when you go back do you tell your people that these are good people, they aren’t just bombing us but also greeting us with garlands and love (sic)?” ALSO READ: Javed Akhtar Reacts To His VIRAL 26/11 Mumbai Terror Attacks Comment; Reveals Pakistani Audience Applauded His Response: ‘They Agreed With Me’

The 78-year-old celebrity had said, “We should not blame each other. It will solve nothing. The atmosphere is tense, which should be doused. We are people from Mumbai, we have seen the attack on our city. They (attackers) did not come from Norway or Egypt. They are still roaming free in your country. So if there is anger in the Hindustani’s heart, you can’t complain. When Faiz Sahab visited, he was received like a very important visitor. It was broadcast all over. We hosted big functions of Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan and Mehdi Hasan. You (Pakistan) never organized a function for Lata Mangeshkar?”

His response was widely hailed by everyone present at the event and even on the internet.
