The postponement came after India launched counter-terror attacks on Pakistan between May 6 and 7. Operation Sindoor, led by the Indian Armed Forces, is a “measured" and “non-escalatory" retaliatory strike targeting terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) in response to the Pahalgam terror attack. The mission has been hailed by many celebrities, who stood in solidarity with the armed forces and the nation during such challenging times.
Previously, Asim had also shared an X post, condemning the cowardly attacks on tourists in Jammu 7 Kashmir’s Pahalgam on April 22. The terror attack reportedly claimed the lives of 26 innocent tourists. Taking to his account a day later, the former Bigg Boss contestant wrote, “A valley of beauty turned into a scene of horror. Kashmir cries tonight, and so do we. Terror stole lives, futures, peace. I condemn this heinous act and pray for strength to those left behind."
