\n

The United States\u2019 escalating conflict with Iran has grabbed everyone\u2019s attention and Indian celebrities are no different. From Javed Akhtar to Sonu Sood and Akshay Kumar, several Indian stars have voiced concern, criticism and appeals for peace. As the global conflict continues, let\u2019s find out in detail how Indian voices from the Indian entertainment industry are expressing their anxiety, empathy and strong opinion on the ongoing issue:<\/p>\n

Javed Akhtar Slams US-Israel Actions<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Veteran lyricist and screenwriter Javed Akhtar<\/a> was one of the first Indian celebrities to criticise US leadership and Israel\u2019s role in the conflict. On March 2, Akhtar took to his X handle and wrote, \u201cI think this time trump and Israel have over played there hand because if they are allowed to get away with this audacity and do an Iraq to Iran China will lose her total credibility in the world . Netanyahu and Trump like all the bullies have pushed others to the wall and ultimately left no choice to others but to react in a decisive manner.”<\/p>\n

Sonu Sood Offers Humanitarian Support<\/strong><\/p>\n

Actor Sonu Sood also expressed concern for those affected, as he also stepped in to help stranded travellers. When Indians were left stranded in Dubai due to flight disruptions caused by the conflict, Sood reportedly offered free accommodation to many. \u201cI hope everything will be fine and I wish happiness for everyone,” he wrote on his social media handles.<\/p>\n

Akshay Kumar Expresses Concern<\/strong><\/p>\n

In one of the episodes of his quiz show Wheel of Fortune, Akshay Kumar<\/a> spoke about the tensions and expressed concern. \u201cWaise ap logo ko bata du jaise ke ap log jante hai duniya mai bhot pareshani chal rahi hai, itne sare war chal rahe hai we have to pray. Jab bhi ap raat ko sone jaye, usse phele apne parivaar ke liye.. ek chota sa prayer bolein just for sake of our country, so we all are safe. (By the way, I want to tell you all, as you already know, there is a lot of distress in the world right now. There are so many wars going on, so we have to pray. Whenever you go to sleep at night, before that, say a small prayer for your family\u2026 just for the sake of our country, so that we all remain safe),” he said.<\/p>\n

Mammootty Says \u2018I Wish Humanity Wins\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n

Malayalam superstar Mammootty was also speaking at a public event when he drew a parallel with cinema and conflict. \u201cThere have been debates, arguments and even wars in cinema as well. Sometimes some people win, and sometimes both sides lose. Even now, a war is going on. I don\u2019t know who will win, but I wish humanity wins,” he said.<\/p>\n
