While touring Europe for charity events, legendary Pakistani actress Bushra Ansari strongly responded to Javed Akhtar’s controversial remarks. Her video response, now viral, displays her usual wit and sharp clarity regarding the anti Pakistani remarks.
She called out what she saw as hypocrisy and double standards in Indian discourse. Bushra questioned why Pakistani women are granted Indian visas only to be deported shortly after.
She highlighted this inconsistency in the cross border engagements.
She directly addressed Akhtar, comparing him to Naseeruddin Shah and remarking, “At least he stays silent.” She criticized Indian media figures like Arnab Goswami as aggressive troublemakers.

Bushra also condemned retired Indian military officials for promoting hostility as patriotism.
Her tone was fiery but aimed at policies, not people. Bushra stressed that her issue is with the political atmosphere, not Indian citizens.
She also shared a story about meeting a kind Indian girl abroad as a sign of hope.
Her message resonated deeply, offering a rare voice of honesty and compassion in a time of heightened tensions.
Bushra’s fearless yet humane commentary stood out. Supporters praised her for saying what many feel but won’t express openly. She resumed the artist’s role in speaking bold, uncomfortable truths with dignity.
