Pakistani actors advocated peace and slammed Indian celebrities as they cheered for war and lauded the Indian forces for violating the Line of Control (LoC).
Mahira Khan, Mawra Hocane, Hareem Farooq, Hadiqa Kiani and Armeena Khan were among others who spoke up against war.
Urging for sense to prevail, Mahira Khan tweeted, “Nothing uglier. Nothing more ignorant than cheering for war. May sense prevail.. Pakistan Zindabad.”

“There can be NO winners in war if we value Human Life at all.“
Christopher Holliday.
It’s time we understand this as humans.The media needs to take charge & stop being provocative. It’s our duty to inculcate peace & use our words for better & not worse.
Praying for peace always!— MAWRA HOCANE (@MawraHocane) February 26, 2019
“It is easy to advocate peace whilst the sun shines. When the storm rages, it is then your character, principles & values are tested. Will you turn your face into the wind and stand by what is right or will history find you wanting?” – Me #peace #saynotowar ❤️????????

WHAT?!!! But aren’t you supposed to be a Good Will ambassador for @UNICEF? Screen shot this everyone and next time she speaks up for peace and goodwill. Let’s remind her of this hypocrisy. https://t.co/Jew88bMtYv

I’m watching SOME of these “Bollywood” accounts in dismay, glorifying war (people should take note) In the future, these particular individuals shouldn’t be allowed to preach peace to the world. Artists are supposed to be sane, pacifying voices. ????????♀️ #theinternetneverforgets

War is no victory for anyone – end of the day only human lives are lost no matter which side you belong to ‼️

We need peace! We need words! We need to grow and not regress! There is nothing exciting or spectacular about war, we are talking about REAL HUMAN lives ????????????

Anyone who is encouraging war between Pakistan and India should be taken out of their house and be forced to fight the war themselves. Tweet karna bohat asaan hai, but for once think of the all the soldiers that die unnecessarily because of this. #PakistanZindabad ????????
