TV actress Hina Khan has been targeted on social media following her expression of support for the Indian Army’s recent anti-terror operation, Operation Sindoor. The outspoken and nationalist actress had posted a detailed note on Saturday denouncing the barrage of hate and abusive mails she received for her expression of national pride.

Hina, who is a Kashmiri, did not let the trolls faze her in her reply to them. She made it unambiguously clear that to stand up for her nation was something she would never apologize or back down on.

“I Will Always Be an Indian First”

In her post, Hina mentioned the abuse on social media aimed at her, including insults on a personal level regarding her health, religion, and family. “Many of you abused me, cursed me, many have unfollowed me. Many more threatening to unfollow me,” she said. “This threat is followed by abuses, salacious and degrading hate directed not only to me but to my medical condition, my family and even my faith.”

She added that while she had always experienced affection from people across the border, the recent wave of hostility has been deeply disappointing. However, Hina emphasized that she remains unfazed and firm in her beliefs. “I will always be an Indian first. So, go ahead. Unfollow me. I don’t care.”
