When asked about his take on Bollywood stars supporting the ban on Pakistani artists, megastar Amitabh Bachchan said that this is not the time to talk about who said what, but it is time to stand united with our armed forces.
The veteran actor, during a media interaction on his 74th birthday, said: "This is not the time for who said what, why, where, how. The nation is incensed; we all know that, the people of this country are very angry by the incidences that have been happening at our borders."
"I think it's time to show solidarity towards our (jawans) and our armed forces who are sacrificing their lives so that you and me should be safe her. So that'd what need to be put in question and nothing else," asserted the 'Pink' star.
Earlier also, a host of Bollywood actors including Salman Khan, Karan Johar, Siddarth Malhotra, Riteish Deshmukh and Anupam Kher have voiced varied opinions over the issue.
