Pakistani celebs rally in support of Imran Khan's call for Kashmir Hour tomorrow

Earlier today, PM Imran Khan called on all Pakistanis to take part in 'Kashmir Hour', being observed tomorrow at 12pm, to send a strong message of solidarity to Kashmiris.

"I want all Pakistanis to come out tomorrow 12 noon-12.30pm to show solidarity with the Kashmiri people and send the Kashmiris in Indian-occupied Kashmir a clear message that the entire Pakistani nation stands in solidarity with them and against Indian fascist oppression, the inhumane 24-day curfew, the daily injuring and killing of Kashmiri civilians, including women & children — all part of the ethnic cleansing agenda of the Modi government and its illegal annexation of IoK," said the premier via Twitter.

Pakistani celebs have come out on social media to show support for the PM's initiative:

Cricketers, Shahid Afridi and Ahmed Shahzad are right behind IK

Even though Humayun Saeed won't be in the country tomorrow, the actor encouraged fans and followers to raise their voice against injustice

Ali Rehman Khan was also traveling but made sure to participate

India's government, led by the Hindu-nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party, decided on August 5 to repeal of Article 370 of the Indian constitution, that granted occupied Kashmir special status. The government instituted a security lockdown and communications blackout to avoid violence. The clampdown is now on its 25th day.
