Director Vikram Bhatt also told media, "We should concentrate on making sure that Pakistan is declared a terrorist state. That should be our effort. This (asking Pak actors to leave) is like trivializing the issue, whether artists or cricket should be allowed nor not...How does that matter? What matters is that people are dying, we have been constantly suffering... And the only thing we do is ban artists!" (sic)

Media asked about his views about the artistes from Pakistan should take stand for Uri attack issue, he replied, "I expect them to take a stand but can they do that? They are actors, creative people, not activists. I don't think they can go back if they are going to talk against the terrorist outfits in Pakistan. They would surely fear for their lives, might as well become Indian citizens then. I think they would really fear for their safety." (sic)
