Swara Bhaskar has been getting backlash from Pakistan ever since her latest comment on Pakistan. In a recent interview the ‘Veere Di Wedding’ starlet called Pakistan a failed state and Pakistanis have been slamming her ever since.
After Urwa Hocane Gohar Rasheed has jumped into the court and slammed Swara Bhaskar in a tweet spree.
In a series of Twitter posts, the Rangreza actor Rasheed wrote how he had no knowledge of who Bhaskar was till he came across her now infamous interview with critic Rajeev Masand. He went on to add that her comments were typical of someone with an “old-school mentality”.
#SwaraBhasker prior to your recent interview I've never heard your name or known of your existence in #Bollywood. Hence this is when I found out about you, and your change of opinion on #Pakistan.
My first reaction was, what a “typical old school mentality”, (1/10)— Mirza Gohar Rasheed (@GoharRsd) June 3, 2018
He further added,
“Obviously in order to stand out in front of your talented and well spoken co actors #KareenaKapoor & #SonamKapoor you’ld resort to a controversial statement to get the limelight. There seemed to be no better way for you, than talking about #Pakistan with hatred,”

He went on to say,
“This reflects your negative mantra in making some name for your self, also why I’ve never heard of you before,”

He further schooled Swara on how Pakistan is the fifth largest market for Bollywood movies,
In your interview you said “#Pakistan is a failing state, I don’t understand why we keep taking pleasure and feeling sense of self worth from all the things that happens in #Pakistan”. Let me inform you that #Pakistan is the 5th largest market for Bollywood films, (4/10)

And let me conclude with the quote from my beloved #QuaideAzam #MohammadAliJinnah “THERE IS NO POWER ON EARTH THAT CAN UNDO PAKISTAN 🇵🇰 “ (10/10) #ProudPakistani #SwaraBhaskar #KHUSHRAHO
