Rajeev Khandelwal speaks out against restriction on Pakistani actors; says, “It is all politics”

-

Rajeev Khandelwal is known for playing a variety of characters in films, television, and online series. The actor, who recently participated in the Emraan Hashmi-starring film Showtime, replied to the restriction on Pakistani artists. In an interview with Bollywood Bubble, Rajeev stated that politicians advocating a ban on Pakistani actors is wrong.

Rajeev, remarking about the restriction on Pakistani artists, stated, “No, it is all politics. This is very wrong. Who are these politicians to ban artists? Our politics dictates a certain narrative. Where there is love blossoming between two nations, you don’t even allow that for whatever reasons. So, I don’t understand this. I also feel that it’s wrong on my part to comment on this as I don’t understand it. We often speak about harmony and peace. So, where there is genuine peace and harmony, there too political parties give it a Hindu-Muslim angle. That is not right. It’s not that the Pakistani government is sending the artists as agents. I have only seen a lot of love coming.”

Rajeev is well-known for his work on prominent Hindi television shows such as Kahiin To Hoga and Sacch Ka Saamna. He made his Bollywood debut with the film Aamir 2008. He later appeared in films like Shiatan and Table No 21. Rajeev’s Disney+ Hotstar show Showtime was just renewed for a second season.

After playing in theatres for 10 days, the Salman Khan starrer Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan has entered the Rs. 100 Crore Club. It has taken a while for the film to reach here since pre-pandemic it was an entirely different scenario where Salman Khan starrers were scoring as much in their opening weekend itself. However, these are different times and hence the kind of momentum that was evidenced for films in 2019 or before is just not coming in. Yes, there are exceptions like Pathaan or Brahmastra but then those have a different kind of pitch and aren’t regular affairs. This can be seen in the way how collections are coming for the Farhad Samji directed film in the second weekend, what with Sunday collections staying low at Rs. 3.50 crores. For a big holiday release, one would have been expecting a double digit score at the bare minimum on second Sunday but then that has hardly happened for any film during last 18 odd months ever since Akshay Kumar’s Sooryavanshi opened theatres aga
