Zahid Ahmed, Dania Enwer Urge Boycott of Indian Artists for Supporting Indian Attack

As tensions continue to rise between India and Pakistan, Pakistani actors Dania Enwer and Zahid Ahmed have spoken out strongly against Indian celebrities who have shown support for India’s recent military actions.

In a series of Instagram stories, Dania Enwer called for a complete boycott of Bollywood artists backing India’s strikes on Pakistani territory, which led to the martyrdom of at least 31 civilians. She urged fans to stop supporting Indian celebrities who are “posting in favour of Operation Shindoor against Pakistan.”

“We need to unfollow and block all Indian artists,” she wrote. “Stop supporting them in the name of art while all of them are posting in favour of Operation Shindoor against Pakistan.”

Adding his voice to the sentiment, Zahid Ahmed also addressed the issue on Instagram, criticizing the notion of cultural exchange with artists who echo hate. “War or no war, one thing should be clear moving forward. As long as this hateful butcher leads their country and their artists resonate the same hate, instead of aspiring to work with them, our artists should feel disgust at the thought of being associated with such mentalities,” he stated.

He further slammed the idea of borderless art, saying, “Enough of this BS that art has no boundaries, they have clearly defined the boundaries and crossed them.”

Both actors’ statements have sparked strong reactions online, reflecting a growing call within the Pakistani entertainment industry to rethink artistic ties with India during ongoing conflict.
