‘Muslim hating is fashionable these days’: Naseeruddin Shah

June 1, 2023

Bollywood Actor Naseeruddin Shah recently said that it’s “worrying” how “undisguised propaganda” through art is being peddled to the masses, which is an alarming reflection of the current “Islamophobic” times. “Oh sure, these are worrying times absolutely. The kind of stuff that’s pure, undisguised propaganda is being lapped up and it’s a reflection of the zeitgeist of the times. Muslim hating is fashionable these days, even among educated people. It’s what the ruling party has very cleverly tapped into this nerve. We talk about secular this, democracy that, so why are you introducing religion into everything?” Naseeruddin said while speaking to Indian Express.
