In a heartfelt display of concern, a fan in Mumbai, accompanied by her young daughter, took to the streets to express her worries about actor Saif Ali Khan’s well-being and the direction Bollywood is heading. Standing outside Lilavati Hospital with a placard, the woman passionately voiced her feelings, calling for a shift in the narrative of the film industry.
The placard prominently featured a poster of Saif Ali Khan’s iconic film Hum Tum and conveyed a powerful message about the impact movies have on society. It urged Bollywood to move away from violent films, emphasizing that the industry’s hallmark had always been its heartwarming love stories, which once brought joy to millions.
She said, “When love stories were made, India was much happier.” Describing herself as a representative of the “common man,” the woman expressed her sorrow over recent events, likening Bollywood to her own family: “Bollywood has been like my family, and it feels like someone is attacking my own family.” She stressed the need for Bollywood to return to its roots of creating uplifting love stories.
“Watching violent movies repeatedly will make every common man start carrying knives. Just like Saif sir was attacked today, tomorrow it could happen to me as well,” she said. She further added, “We are very sorry for what has happened. No one wants violent movies; they have a negative impact on society.”
