    Amar Khan slams Indian trolls, backs Deepika Padukone amid vicious backlash

    Pakistani actor Amar Khan has voiced her support for Indian star Deepika Padukone, who is facing intense trolling from hardline Hindutva elements from India.

    The Bollywood superstar is being targeted for an advertisement she filmed alongside her husband, actor Ranveer Singh, that has snowballed into a social media storm. Padukone is seen wearing an Abaya and a Hijab in the ad as she admires the stunning architecture of the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi.

    Taking to Instagram stories, Amar replied to a sarcastic Tweet on X (formerly Twitter) which said: “An average ‘woke feminist’ when she actually doesn’t have a choice.”

    “It isn’t a woke feminist! It’s a human from a country which has 1/3 Muslims, respecting all religions. Bravo Deepika, what a shame this current politics in India is stooping to,” she said this while referring to the toxic, hate-filled politics of the Narendra Modi-led government towards Muslims.

    Critics have accused Deepika of hypocrisy, questioning how someone who advocates for women’s freedom could “submit” to religious customs. Many are referencing her “My Choice” campaign for Vogue India back in 2015, suggesting that wearing a Hijab contradicts her feminist stance.

    But others are saying that the critics are missing one point and that is “choice”. On various religious occasions or visits, she wore traditional attire – Banarasi sarees, hand-woven fabrics, and elegant suits. Some said that if she can wear gowns at Cannes, she can wear “anything”.

    One user wrote on X: “It’s a woman’s choice whether she wants to wear a bikini on the beach, a hijab in a mosque, or a lehenga with a choli at weddings. If you don’t understand this, then the problem is with you, not with women, and definitely not with Deepika Padukone. By the way, she looks so beautiful in a hijab.”

    Deepika Padukone hasn’t commented on the issue as yet.

    Indians troll Deepika Padukone for wearing hijab in advertisement

    Indian bhakts keep on trolling anyone who dares to offend their sensibilities. Bollywood A-lister Deepika Padukone has found herself at the center of a trolling campaign for wearing a hijab while promoting Abu Dhabi tourism with her husband Ranveer Singh.

    One Hindutva extremist user shared pictures of the advertisement and reminded her of her previous campaign: “Remember Deepika Padukone’s video ‘My Choice’? ‘To wear a Bindi or not, my choice. I decide the clothes I wear’. Now Deepika Padukone has made video promoting Abu Dhabi tourism wearing Hijab.”

    He questioned: “What happened to ‘My Choice’?”

    One user shared a picture of Indian actress and politician Smriti Irani from her Madinah visit standing in an Indian traditional saree and tillak, saying: “This is @smriti Irani in Madinah.”

    “Choice has a price tag,” one troll wrote. Another agreed, saying: “For people like these MONEY is the only choice. Baaki sab bakwaas hai. India ki public ko sab bewakoof banate rehte hai. Isne bhi bana liya to kya hi naya kiya. (Rest is rubbish, everyone make fools out of Indian public. She has done the same, what’s new it?)”

    One user lashed out at the actors, saying: “These actors are hypocrites and worse humans!”

    However, many of her fans came to her defense.

    A fan wrote: “What’s your problem sir, anyone can do anything as per their wish.”

    “Bro, same logic, it’s her choice now too,” another added.

    One user pointed out: “Because you cannot enter Sheikh Zayed mosque without a hijab.”

    “ITS HER CHOICE,” one simply shut the debate.

    “My Choice” is a Vogue India campaign that sparked debates on feminism in India, while the new advertisement shows her in modest attire, wearing a Hijab for Abu Dhabi tourism advertisement with Ranveer Singh.

    ‘Nearly 18 years after Om Shanti Om’: Shah Rukh, Deepika reunite for 6th film

    Nearly 18 years after they first lit up the cinema screen together in Om Shanti Om, Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone are set to reunite for their sixth film, a high-octane action-thriller titled King, directed by Siddharth Anand.

    The announcement has sent waves of excitement across Bollywood and among fans around the world, as the duo’s on-screen chemistry has consistently been a winning formula at the box office.

    Deepika confirmed the news via Instagram, sharing a behind-the-scenes glimpse with a touching message: “He taught me that the experience of making a movie, and the people you make it with, matter far more than its success.” The message was a tribute to Shah Rukh Khan, who played a key role in launching her career with their debut film together.

    Directed by Siddharth Anand, known for helming major action hits like Pathaan and War, King is already one of the most anticipated projects of 2026. While details about the plot remain under wraps, reports suggest the film will feature Shah Rukh in a gritty, intense role unlike anything he’s done before. Deepika is expected to play a central character with strong emotional and action-driven arcs, adding yet another layer to their dynamic partnership on screen.

    This marks the sixth collaboration between the two actors, whose previous films together include Om Shanti Om (2007), Chennai Express (2013), Happy New Year (2014), Pathaan (2023), and Jawan (2023)—the last of which featured Deepika in an extended cameo. Over the years, their pairing has become successful and fan-favorite.

    King also marks a new chapter in Indian cinema’s growing trend of high-budget action thrillers with strong lead characters and global appeal. With Anand at the helm and two of the industry’s biggest stars leading the cast, expectations are sky-high.

    According to IMDb, the film will mark the return of Rani Mukerji in a much-awaited comeback. Joining the roster are seasoned actors like Anil Kapoor, Abhishek Bachchan, Jackie Shroff, Arshad Warsi, and rising talents such as Raghav Juyal and Jaideep Ahlawat.

    Notably, King will also feature Shah Rukh Khan’s daughter Suhana Khan in what is expected to be her first major theatrical role following her debut in The Archies on OTT.
