Naseeruddin Shah gets trolled on social media for calling Mughals as refugees – Times of India

Naseeruddin Shah has once again stirred controversy with his latest remarks. The veteran Bollywood actor stated in an interview that Mughals were ‘refugees’. The clip going viral on social media feature Naseeruddin Shah stating that the Mughals came to India to make it their homeland and that they gave the country lasting monuments and tradition of dancing, music, painting and literature. This statement has not gone down well with several netizens who are trolling the veteran actor on social media.

Previously, the veteran actor had irked netizens when he had criticised a section of Indian Muslims for celebrating Taliban‘s rise to power in Afghanistan. In the controversial video that had gone viral on Twitter, the veteran actor stated that every Indian Muslim must introspect if they want “reform and modernity” in the religion or live with dated “barbarian” values.

Speaking about the evolution of cinema, Naseeruddin Shah had told ETimes, “As far as cinema is considered, more people are making films that they believe in and that’s fantastic. Marathi cinema is progressing fantastically. So, the number of films that filmmakers believe in has gone up, as has the number of potboilers. So, the ratio remains the same. I don’t watch TV anymore, but I we’ve lost a great opportunity in making it a medium of education. As for theatre, it’s still where it used to be. People who are crazy enough will continue doing theatre.”
