The four Khans who rule the Bollywood box office, Salman, Shah Rukh, Aamir and Saif Ali Khan have been attacked with a missive from the dreaded terrorist outfit Indian Mujahideen.

In the wake of the terrorist attacks on Bangalore and Ahmedabad, it is Bollywood that is now rocked with terror threats. But the whole industry has come out into the open in support of the King Khans. The terror outfit has demanded that they stop acting or else their families will be targeted.

The four Khans have a combined worth of Rs 450 crores attached to them in projects this year. The industry has thrown its weight behind the stars. Speaking to a news daily, producer cum director Karan Johar said, “In the film industry, talent is God and creativity our religion. Our work has involved some of the most prolific Islamic writers like Javed Akhtar, who has written the lyrics for songs like Radha kaise na jale and for bhajans. I believe that our fraternity has no gender, sex or religious bias and we work in tandem together. There may be personal divides but never any religious divide. I won’t stop working with anyone.”

Adding to this filmmaker Kunal Kohli stated that the industry does not pick up actors on the basis of the religion but on their talent. “It’s time that we learn that resilience and survival of the human spirit from the common man.” The sentiment has been widely echoed by filmmakers throughout the industry.

Security has been tightened around the four stars and it is hoped that these threats are not carried out.
