Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan has now said India is a very tolerant country and has appealed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi to stop people who spread hatred and try to break the country.
“Our country is very tolerant, but there are people who spread ill-will.. Those who speak of breaking up this vast country, such people are present in all religions, only Modiji can stop them. After all, Modiji is our PM, we have to tell him” Aamir Khan said on Rajat Sharma’s ‘Aap ki Adalat’, according to a press release by India TV.
Aamir said he had immense trust in the law of the land and added that PM Modi has already expressed his concern over negativity and hatred.
“Law is equal for all, and nobody is above law. Unfortunately, there are some people who spread negativity and hatred. If I am not wrong, our prime minister has also expressed concern. His slogan is ‘sabka saath, sabka vikas’,” he said.
“I had said in my interview that there was a sense of depression, a sense of despondency, a feeling of insecurity and intolerance was growing. But these are entirely two different things. I never said India was intolerant, I was wrongly quoted.. To say about rising intolerance and to say India is intolerant are two different things.”
About the government agency’s decision not to renew his contract as the brand ambassador of tourism in India, Aamir said “For me, my motherland is my mother, it cannot be a brand. I can never view my mother as a brand. It could be a brand for other people, but not for me. Till this date, I continue to be India’s brand ambassador, even the government may have discontinued me”
Back in November 2015, Aamir had said “As an individual, as part of this country as a citizen, we read in the papers what is happening, we see it on the news and certainly, I have been alarmed. I can’t deny. I have been alarmed by a number of incidents”
“When I chat with Kiran at home, she says ‘Should we move out of India?’ That’s a disastrous and big statement for Kiran to make. She fears for her child. She fears about what the atmosphere around us will be. She feels scared to open the newspapers every day. That does indicate that there is this sense of growing disquiet, there is growing despondency apart from alarm. You feel why this is happening, you feel low. That sense does exist in me”
bhai aap politics join karo…if you can’t prove your point to the people then confuse them…wah wah

@ Sky at 12:01 am : U may feel that there is no major difference in Amir saying that there is growing intolerance in India (and connect it when he quoted his wife fearing about her child’s future and discussing about leaving India and one doesnt consider such big thing at low or normal intolerance levels and reflects how serious the intolerance levels are) and today’s statement that India is a very tolerant country.
I see Amir taking a u turn here (which I consider both him and SRK are justified in doing keeping in view the unnecessary negative reactions) but if u don’t think that way then we can agree to dis agree here.
@11:09am FAKE navin
Nice try chameleon DYNAMIC The Duplicate Queen of Indicine
@ANK I agree that Aamir also taken a u turn. That’s why I mentioned in my first comment “As an Aamir fan I am proud of him, I believe that he will keep give commebts and his vision the way he feel and wants too, He should not need to clarify himself again and again for those statement.” But what can Aamir do now because the way he scolded and negativity surrounding him. He had to clear himself. I myself scolded Aamir on Indicine the day when Aamir said about intolerance. Regarding srk I said he taken u-turn by sating that I never said India is intolerant. Srk also clearly mention that intolerance is growing is every where in world. Aamir clearly said even yesterday that he said about growing intolerance but he didn’t said whole india is intolerant though he could give his views in a better manner. I only pointed you when your and challa comments seems to involving Aamir with Dilwale.
I didn’t supported srk and Aamir statements about intolerance.
The situation with Aamir is like if he clarify himself he would regarded as hypocrite and if not he as a traitor,anti-national. That’s why I didn’t want Aamir to clarify himself but being a superstar he need to come in front of media and he can’t avoid his comments of intolerance if asked by media.
@ Aman kapoor,
Who the hell are you to talk like this? If all Muslims should leave from india, then all Hindus should leave from this world. Apni aukaat mat bhool, bloody coward, bloody sinner.
@ Sky : I just hope that this useless controversy ends and doesn’t come up again and the Khans be more careful in such matters.
I WAS waiting for this answer since long time ago and I got that.now I’M waiting for @tiger-real chuha’s reaction to this,who supported amir for intolerance statement and said he would have support KING KHAN if he would not have given this u-turn statement.now what is this?where have you hidden @tiger-the real chuha,bash amir khan as much as you can if you’re son of ONE FATHER.
really this tingumir is such a 3rd class fake personality,if he will offer even bigger priceless stunt,then he can sold his whole family on roadside.just see how he is licking the feet of a political leader and praising him in such a way that he knew about modi completely.
and his sadakchap 1rupee fans too came here to give excuse
no amir said this way
but people take in that way
which was same what KING KHAN FANS wrote 1000 times.but at that time these moronic scoundrels said KING KHAN as deshdrohi.
but they never knew it’s tingumir’s strategy to make trouble for DILWALE.and he did it.and from the starting of the year he’ll start promotion of tolerance to save dangal pandey from boycott.
now his sadakchap fans too will go after his evil way of strategy.as I already said “koi bhi salmir fan ek baap ki aulad nahi” just like their degraded idols.
@sss
First you tell me are you a one father son? Of course not.. You have so many father that’s why you became nonsense and moron plus sick too.
We are just fans of them, we love their movies and love their performance so have become their fan… That’s it. They aren’t our idol. We aren’t getting any penny from them. Coming to you..
You’re such a sick personality i have ever seen in my life, just because you are srk fan you are using disgusting word, despite knowing will get the same reply from salmir fans too.. You have no objection to insult your mother just because of srk.. You have crossed every limit. Thuuu…
Before showing one finger to us just see remaining four fingers is attacking you.
When srk said intolerance comment, you weren’t bash him, when he take U turn, you didn’t bash him and supported him. The same thing is doing aamir fans too. Sss ek baap ki aulad nahin hai.
@Fasal, @Javed, @kaali billi, @SSS and all other psychopath idiots, bark as much as you all can as you all chote log are jealous of Megastar aamir khan’s unparallel success. Your idol needs to take 1000 births to come even close to aamir’s success and megastardom. He can never come close to biggest megastar aamir khan. Megastar aamir khan has billions of fans and chota star Srk doesn’t have even half as many fans as he is a real fanless actor. Megastar aamir khan will destroy the career of tingu flop star Srk this year itself.
