As tensions simmer between Pakistan and India following the controversial Pahalgam attack, Pakistan's leading figures from showbiz and sports have thrown their weight behind the country’s armed forces, questioning India’s narrative and warning against any hostile action.
Voices of scepticism rang loud after it was revealed that Pakistan’s name was included in the FIR barely half an hour after the attack — a timeline that many are calling out as highly suspicious.
Veteran actor Javed Sheikh didn't mince words: "It is beyond understanding that Pakistan's name surfaced in the FIR so quickly. If India attacks, our army is fully ready. We will give a strong response. If war breaks out, we’ll stand shoulder-to-shoulder with our brave forces."
Actress Laila Zuberi echoed the sentiment, exuding fiery patriotism: "The entire nation stands firmly behind our armed forces. We will answer India with a stone for every brick."
Former national cricket team captain Moin Khan also weighed in, warning: "Pakistan's armed forces are perfectly positioned to respond to any aggression. India should think twice before making any foolish move."
Actor Adnan Samad Khan stressed national unity: "If Pakistan’s integrity is threatened, the government, the military, and the people will stand as one."
Singer Fakhir Mahmood summed up the national mood: "The Pakistani nation is sovereign and we will not compromise on our security. Long live Pakistan!"
Across political, cultural, and civil society circles, Pakistanis are rallying behind their armed forces, sending a clear and united message: Pakistan is prepared to defend its honor — decisively and together.
