One would expect Anurag Kashyap to have a hard-hitting response to the possible ban on Karan Johar's Ae Dil Hai Mushkil for featuring Pakistani actor Fawad Khan.

The filmmaker, who is no stranger to bans, hit out at Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, asking him why Karan Johar has to suffer a ban when Modi himself was making a pleasure trip to Pakistan to meet Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif at the time Ae Dil Hai Mushkil was being shot in India.

Anurag took to Twitter to voice his complaint about these double standards.

The ban on Pakistani actors comes in response to the Uri attacks in Kashmir. While the Indian Producers Association has passed a resolution for the ban on Pakistani artists working in India, it made an exception for films like ADHM that have already completed shooting with a Pakistani star. Still, ADHM faces hurdles on its way to the box office.
