Pakistani celebrities have come forward to condemn Indian poet Javed Akhtar<\/a> for taking advantage of the country’s hospitality by spreading his brand of idiotic jingoism, and\u00a0perpetuating negative stereotypes<\/p>\n

The Indian poet’s insensitive remarks against their country during his visit to Lahore for the Faiz Literary Festival have caused a major uproar in Pakistan, with many people wondering why this 78-year-old out-of-touch artist was even invited.<\/p>\n

People also called out celebrities like Ali Zafar for trying so hard to seek Javed Akhtar’s admiration, and actor Adeel Hashmi for having zero self respect as he sat by the Indian poet’s knees during the performance.<\/p>\n

In his comments, Javed Akhtar had suggested that the terrorists responsible for the 2009 Mumbai attacks were roaming freely in Pakistan. His comments were widely seen as an attempt to malign Pakistan and further stoke tensions between the two countries.<\/p>\n\t\t

The controversy surrounding Javed Akhtar’s visit has once again highlighted the need for better relations between India and Pakistan. While there have been some positive developments in recent years, incidents like this show that there is still a long way to go.<\/p>\n

It is hoped that both countries can work towards building a relationship based on mutual respect and understanding, rather than negative stereotypes and jingoism.<\/p>\n
