Renowned Bollywood actress Sushmita Sen turned heads with her stunning presence at a high-profile fashion event in Mumbai last night. Dressed in an elegant silk outfit, she effortlessly owned the red carpet, radiating grace and confidence.

But it wasn’t just her style that caught the media's attention — it was her powerful statement in support of actor Fawad Khan that left everyone talking. 

While interacting with InstantBollywood at the event, Sushmita was asked by a reporter about the controversy around Abir Gulal and Pakistani heartthrob Fawad Khan’s comeback.

The reporter asked, “Fawad Khan is making a comeback with Abir Gulal. Many people are saying that no one from Pakistan should be cast. What would you like to say?”

Smiling, Sushmita responded, “I would just like to say that art has no border. An artist connects from heart to heart, not through borders.”

Her comment quickly gained traction on social media, with fans and celebrities praising her bold yet thoughtful words. Many hailed her for standing up for artistic freedom at a time when opinions are often divided.

Fawad Khan, who has a strong fan base across India and Pakistan, is making a much-anticipated return to Indian cinema. While many are thrilled, right-wing hardliners have expressed reservations — something Sushmita addressed with both style and strength.

In an industry full of noise, Sushmita Sen continues to be a voice of reason — reminding everyone that talent knows no border.
