Anil Sharma reacts to Naseeruddin Shah's comment 'disturbing' on Gadar 2

A recent statement of Naseeruddin Shah has made headlines. The veteran actor said that the success of films like ‘Gadar 2’ is ‘disturbing’. Now, the director of the Sunny Deol-starrer has reacted to Shah’s statement.

Naseeruddin Shah grabbed headlines after he criticized ‘Gadar 2’. Now, the film’s director, Anil Sharma, has reacted to the comments. In an exclusive interview with AajTak, Anil Sharma said, “I read that quote by Naseer Sahab. I was surprised after reading it. Naseer Saheb knows me well and he also knows which ideology I belong to. I am surprised that he is saying such things about ‘Gadar



2’.”

He further added, “I would like to say that Gadar 2 is not against any community. Neither is it against any country. Gadar in itself is a film which is full of patriotism. It is part of a sequel. It is a proper masala film. Which people have been watching for years. So I would like to tell Naseer Sahab that once he watches Gadar 2, he will definitely change his statement. I still feel that he cannot say such things. I have been a fan of his acting. If he has said so, then I would request him to watch the film once. I have always made cinema with the aim of masala. I have never had any political propaganda in this. Naseer Saheb himself is aware of this.”
