Bollywood star Ayushmann Khurrana, recently in the limelight for his participation in the Ram Temple consecration ceremony in Ayodhya, is now facing attention due to a controversial video that has surfaced online.
The viral clip captures Ayushmann Khurrana singing ‘Dil Dil Pakistan’ at a concert, triggering criticism and intense discussions among netizens. The video has widely circulated on social media platforms, with users expressing strong opinions on the actor’s decision to perform the unofficial anthem of Pakistan.
Social media, especially on X (formerly Twitter), has been inundated with disapproval, with some accusing Ayushmann of going to extremes for financial gains. ‘Dil Dil Pakistan,’ a popular song, holds significant patriotic value in Pakistan and is often considered an unofficial national anthem.
Ayushmann Khurrana’s PR team has stepped forward to clarify the context behind the controversial video. According to reports, the clip dates back to a concert in Dubai in 2017, where Ayushmann and Pakistani artist Ali Zafar performed live. The event aimed to celebrate harmony between the two nations.
During the concert, Ali Zafar initiated the rendition of ‘Dil Dil Pakistan,’ and Ayushmann Khurrana joined him on stage. The report emphasizes that the performance also included Ayushmann singing ‘Chak De! India,’ with Ali as his co-performer. Unfortunately, social media users are selectively sharing the segment where Ayushmann is singing ‘Dil Dil Pakistan,’ leading to targeted criticism against the actor.
This revelation sheds light on the true context of the video, highlighting the harmony and camaraderie between Ayushmann Khurrana and Ali Zafar during the concert. As the controversy continues on social media, it is crucial to consider the full story before passing judgment on the actor’s actions.
