On Friday, Shabana Azmi and Javed AKhtar got praised by one and all after they declined the invitation to join two-day literary event on her father Kaifi Azmi in Karachi, Pakistan, as a sign of protest against the cowardly Pulwama suicide attack in Jammu and Kashmir by Pakistan-based terror outfit Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM).

However, their act didn't seem to impress 'Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi' actor Kangana Ranaut much. In a fresh attack on Bollywood, the actress called Shabana Azmi an anti-national who boosts the morals of the enemies by organizing cultural events in Pakistan. 

Talking about Shabana's move to opt out of the Karachi event, Kangana said, "People like Shabana Azmi calling for halt on cultural exchange -- they are the ones who promote Bharat Tere Tukde Honge gangs... why did they organise an event in Karachi in the first place when Pakistani artistes have been banned after Uri attacks? And now they are trying to save face? The film industry is full of such anti-nationals who boost enemies' morals in many ways, but right now is the time to focus on decisive actions... Pakistan ban is not the focus, Pakistan destruction is."

Kangana, who cancelled the success bash of 'Manikarnika' in solidarity with the martyred jawans also added, "Pakistan has not only violated our nation’s security they have also attacked our dignity by openly threatening and humiliating us. We need to take decisive actions or else our silence will be misunderstood for our cowardice... Bharat is bleeding today, the killing of our sons is like a dagger in our gut; anyone who lectures about non-violence and peace at this time should be painted black, put on a donkey and slapped by everyone on the streets."

In a recent interview with In.com, Shabana Azmi reacted to Kangana's recent remarks and said, “You really think at a time like this a personal attack on me can be of any significance when the entire country stands as one in our grief and in condemning this dastardly Pulwama attack ? May God bless her. Shabana Azmi.”
