Aamir Khan responds to love jihad claims and PK backlash
Actor Aamir Khan, who is currently promoting his upcoming film 'Sitaare Zameen Par', has finally addressed the long-standing allegations against his 2014 film 'PK', which was accused of promoting 'love jihad' and being anti-religious. In a recent interview, Khan dismissed these claims as 'wrong' and asserted that the film was never intended to target or disrespect any an interview with India TV, Aamir Khan clarified that 'PK' doesn't intend to hurt or mock any religion. He said, "We're not against any religion. We respect all religions and all religious people. That film tells us to be cautious of those who exploit religion to fool the common man in order to extract money from them. You'll find people like that in every religion. That was the film's only purpose. So stay away from those kinds."advertisement'PK' found itself at the centre of controversy due to its portrayal of organised religion, and particularly for its subplot involving a love story between a Hindu woman (played by Anushka Sharma) and a Pakistani Muslim man (played by Sushant Singh Rajput). The film drew criticism from certain sections, who accused it of promoting 'love jihad'.Reacting to these accusations, Aamir Khan, who played PK in the film, said, "When people from two religions fall in love and wish to get married, that's not always love jihad. It so happens that they love each other, that union is just humanity. It's above religion."For the unversed, 'love jihad' is a controversial and unproven conspiracy theory that alleges Muslim men deliberately marry women of other religions, particularly Hindus, to convert them to further questioned whether his sisters and daughter marrying Hindu men would also be labelled as 'love jihad'.When asked about how his children were named, Aamir responded, 'My kids were named by my wives. I never interfered in that. Husbands don't have much of a say anyway,' he Khan's 'Sitaare Zameen Par' is set to hit theatres this Friday. Also starring Genelia Deshmukh, the film is directed by RS Watch
