Amid India-Pakistan tensions once again the Bollywood industry has taken a call to ban Pakistani actors from being a part of Indian cinema. From Fawad Khan to Hania Aamir many Pakistani actors and actresses were dropped by Indian filmmakers from their movies. In the midst of all this another big controversy has surfaced when the lead actors of Sanam Teri Kasam — Harshvardhan Rane and Mawra Hocane — got involved in a verbal spat. The matter flared up when Rane announced that he would make an exit from Sanam Teri Kasam sequel if Mawra Hocane was involved. Following this Mawra also took to her Instagram and criticised Harshvardhans exit as a PR strategy. In the midst of all these ongoing words of war Sreerama Chandra singer of Haal-E-Dil from Sanam Teri Kasam in an exclusive conversation with India.com opened up on the matter and shared his opinion on Harshs move.
When Sreerama Chandra was asked whether the decision of Harsh stepping down from the film was right or wrong the singer responded by saying A growing country or a citizen of a growing country would not want to go for war because it only takes the country backwards from where it is currently. We have come very far because of our Prime Minister Modi Ji we have reached a certain place on the world map where people have a respect for us. And you know India is a growing country and people are looking forward to the people of India being on the top level.
He added Because we as artists when we travel you see a lot of difference when you say that youre from India and you are a musician or from Bollywood. Its popular worldwide. Me personally I would not want India to get into a war situation because everyone suffers. And hamari entertainment industry toh aise hai ki we are the first ones to get affected and we are the last ones to start operating.
He concluded by saying Coming to what you asked it is completely very subjective and completely very personal. Everyone should be hand in hand. Unity is what we need to survive on and if our country is going through a tough phase then we need to stand with our country no matter what. So I feel as far as someone is supporting the country for a good cause you should just keep doing that.
Meanwhile in the recent development in the matter the makers of the film have decided to drop Mawra Hocane from Sanam Teri Kasam sequel.
