‘सनम तेरी कसम 2’ से पहले ही मच गया बवाल! पाक एक्ट्रेस मावरा होकेन के बयान पर हर्षवर्धन राणे का करारा जवाब
New Delhi : A digital battle has erupted between Bollywood actor Harshvardhan Rane and Pakistani actress Mavra Hocken amidst the increase in border tension between India and Pakistan. The controversy started when Harshvardhan said on Instagram that he would not be a part of Sanam Teri Kasam 2 if Mavra Hocken is included in the sequel to the film. His statement came after a post in Mavra, in which he condemned Operation Sindoor done by India.
Mavra criticized the air strikes after Operation Sindoor and wrote, ‘We all heard the sounds of the blasts, children were killed in my country and lost innocent….’ After this, Mavra described Harshvardhan’s exit from ‘Sanam Teri Kasam 2’ as ‘PR’, saying that he saw his move as drawing a attention.
Harshvardhan Rane’s answer
After criticizing Mavra, Harsh Vardhan replied in his Instagram story. He said, ‘I have the ability to ignore personal attacks, but I cannot tolerate any attack on the honor of my country.’
He also made it clear that his step was patriotic, ‘I decided to stay out of myself, because I have the right not to work with those who call my country’s actions’ cowardly ‘.’
Talk of Harshavardhana
Harshvardhan did not make any personal attack on his behalf about Mavra’s statement. He said, ‘There are great hatred and personal comments in his words, but I never took his name or did not give him any abuses. I did not attack her honor as a woman. I want to maintain this level.
Increasing controversy between Indian and Pakistani artists
Sanam Teri Kasam film proved to be a sleeper hit, which maintained its fanbase for years. After the film’s release again in 2025, it was seen again. However, questions are now being raised on the cooperation of art and artists among politics. The Western India Cine Employees Union (FWICE) recently directed that no Indian artist should work with Pakistani artists.
This decision and answer of Harshvardhan has gone viral on social media. Some people are seeing it as his patriotic stance, while others believe it to show how arts and artists are also wrongly affected at the time of Struggle.
