Ashoke Pandit Criticises Naseeruddin Shah

Filmmaker Ashoke Pandit has criticised veteran actor Naseeruddin Shah over his recent political remarks. Pandit accused Shah of using abusive language and questioned his conduct.

Pandit reacted to a video shared by Shah on social media in which the actor wore a badge reading 'Dimagi Naxal' and criticised the government's handling of student protests. Pandit alleged that Shah's comments reflected frustration and that his behaviour had become unacceptable.

Pandit also claimed that Shah's anger was linked to the success of certain films that some people in the industry did not support. He named films such as The Kerala Story, The Kashmir Files, and Dhurandhar, stating that their success had made Shah and others like him feel insecure.

Pandit accused Shah of targeting several Bollywood personalities, including Anupam Kher, Shah Rukh Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, and Subhash Ghai. He suggested that Shah should seek professional help, adding that his behaviour could worsen if he did not address the issue.
