“In my friend’s own words I would say, ‘I have a friend who feared only Muslims. But he loves Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Aamir Khan, he worships them.

Don’t take me wrong, he is the victim of WhatsApp University’.” Actor Prakash Raj was speaking at a public discussion organised by the Association for Protection of Civil Rights India on “Longing for Justice: Continuous Denial of Bail & Caging Dissent.” Watch:
