Tweet & Retreat: Why did Salman Khan suddenly delete his controversial ‘Ceasefire’ Tweet?

Bollywood Salman Khan Faces Backlash Over Ceasefire Tweet

Bollywood megastar Salman Khan has stirred controversy after posting a tweet in support of the recently declared ceasefire between India and Pakistan. Tensions between the two nations had been running high following India’s aggressive military actions against Pakistan. In retaliation, Pakistan carried out strikes that caused significant damage to Indian targets, escalating the conflict further.

In the midst of this volatile situation, Salman Khan took to Twitter to express relief over the ceasefire, writing, “Thank God for the ceasefire.” The message, however, sparked outrage among many Indian social media users, who accused the actor of being unpatriotic and showing sympathy toward the opposition.

The backlash was swift, with critics condemning the timing and tone of his post. Facing mounting criticism, Khan deleted the tweet soon after it went live.

This incident underscores the growing pressure on celebrities to navigate political commentary with caution, especially on matters concerning national security and international relations.

As of now, Salman Khan has not released any further statements and remains silent on the matter.
