Boycott Aamir Khan: Controversy Erupts Again, What’s the Reason?

Boycott Aamir Khan: Operation Sindoor is India’s response to the recent terror attack in Pahalgam attributed to Pakistan. As the nation expresses concern over security issues, the Indian Army has been commendably working to protect the borders. Citizens are rallying in virtual support and paying tribute to the sacrifices made by Army officers. In this context, there has been significant online debate regarding the silence of prominent Bollywood actors on the matter. Many netizens have criticized actors such as Shah Rukh Khan, Aamir Khan, Salman Khan, and Saif Ali Khan, labeling their lack of acknowledgment towards the martyrs and the Indian Army as irresponsible and insensitive.

Will “Boycott Aamir Khan” affect ‘ Sitaare Zameen Par’?

There is also a growing discussion about the upcoming release of the movie “Sitaare Zameen Par,” which stars Aamir Khan and is produced under his own production company. Critics point out that Aamir Khan has not posted any appreciation for Operation Sindoor on his personal social media accounts. Although Aamir Khan Productions has made posts on their official X and Instagram pages, netizens have deemed these posts inadequate since Aamir himself did not share anything from his personal profile. Consequently, the hashtag #BoycottAamirKhan has started trending in response to this perceived silence.

What exactly triggered the netizens?

Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan’s recent trip to Turkey has ignited a fascinating dialogue about the intricate relationship between celebrity influence, diplomatic relations, and public sentiment. This visit comes at a particularly critical moment, as India is actively engaged in “Operation Sindoor,” a strategic military campaign designed to neutralize terrorist infrastructure within Pakistan. Against this backdrop, Turkey’s vocal support for Pakistan during the operation has exacerbated tensions between the two nations, adding layers of complexity to an already fraught geopolitical landscape.
