Meera to Aamir Khan: You're my guest when you come to Lahore

Apparently, Meera had some kind words of strength and encouragement for Pk star Aamir Khan. After the actor was severely criticised by leading Bollywood personalities for stating that his wife had suggested that they move out of the country, due to growing intolerance, Meera came to Khan’s rescue. This is what she tweeted:-

Amir khan, you’re like my family, you’re my guest when you come to Lahore, and my prayers are with you #Bollywood #thegreatmeera #Love

Aamir Khan is one of the most popular and bankable actors in the Indian film industry these days. Dubbed as ‘Mr.Perfectionist’, it is owing to this very fact alone that he enjoys immense popularity in India and his films gross astronomical amounts. However, even Aamir Khan feels insecure in India, since he recently shared at an awards ceremony that his wife suggested him to leave India, amid rising intolerance.

Kher, known for his bold and outspoken stance on people claiming that India has become intolerant, asked Khan in a series of tweets, when did ‘incredible’ India turn into ‘intolerant’ India?

Dear @aamir_khan. Did you ask Kiran which country would she like to move out to? Did you tell her that this country has made you AAMIR KHAN. — Anupam Kher (@AnupamPkher) November 23, 2015

Dear @aamir_khan. Did you tell Kiran that you have lived through more worse times in this country & but you never thought of moving out. — Anupam Kher (@AnupamPkher) November 23, 2015

Dear @aamir_khan. When did ‘Incredible India’ become ‘Intolerant India’ for you? Only in the last 7-8 months? #AtithiDevoBhavah — Anupam Kher (@AnupamPkher) November 23, 2015

Dear @aamir_khan Presumed country has become #Intolerant. Wat do u suggest 2 millions of Indians? Leave India? Or wait till regime changes? — Anupam Kher (@AnupamPkher) November 23, 2015

Dear @aamir_khan. #SatyamevaJayate u talked about evil practices but gave Hope. So even in ‘Intolerant’ times u need 2 spread Hope not Fear. — Anupam Kher (@AnupamPkher) November 23, 2015

Aamir Khan had also supported those who were returning their awards in India, as a protest against the rising intolerance and had stated that it was important for creative people to voice their views. Along with Anupam Kher, there were several Twitter users from India who were quite angry at the 50 year-old Muslim actor for expressing his opinion. Here are a few tweets:-

Why do @aamir_khan and @iamsrk choose Muslim identity instead of Indian identity when attacked? Stupid advisors. — LPK (@LPK1981) November 24, 2015
