Actor Sonam Kapoor made an appeal on social media on Sunday night. She requested her fans to be on the right side of history.
She took to Twitter to condemn the continuing violence in New Delhi and wrote, “This is an appeal. You will forever regret it otherwise,”
She also wrote, “Silence is not always golden, it can a sign of moral ambiguity, cowardice and thus destructive.”
Earlier, poet and lyricist Javed Akhtar also raise his voice against the violence.
He tweeted: “So many killed, so many injured, so many houses burned, so many shops looted, so many people turned destitute but police has sealed only one house and looking for his owner. Incidentally, his name is Tahir. Hats off to the consistency of the Delhi police.”
Actors Raveena Tandon, Swara Bhaskar and directors Mahesh Bhatt, Pooja Bhatt and Anurag Kashyap have also spoken up against the violence in India’s capital.
Many protests against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) have been taking place in Delhi for months now but the situation appears to have worsened dramatically after shocking incidents of police brutality at universities and a mosque burning down by a mob.
