Recently, Tanishq Ad showing an interfaith marriage had become the subject of severe backlash, with many claiming it promoted ‘Love Jihad’.
Swara Bhasker is among one of the celebs who has strongly reacted to the ‘Love Jihad’ debate. She has condemned the rising intolerance.
According to Spotboye, the Veere Di Wedding actress blames the mainstream news channels for fuelling the hatred.
“We live in times when hate and lies have been normalised. The mainstream news media today has become the most unreliable and irresponsible source of rabble-rousing. When they are called out and their hate and bullying is held accountable they respond with trolling and more hate. But this is the pushback to hate from normal rational citizens. We must hold the media and the government accountable as citizens and as taxpayers.”
Bhasker also made her opinion on ‘Love Jihad’ law very clear, stating that it was an attempt to criminalise young Muslim men and create a communal frenzy.
What do you think of Swara’s views?
