Aamir Khan's remarks on intolerance stir controversy; BJP slams, film fraternity split


New Delhi/Mumbai/Panaji: Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan on Tuesday came under attack from the Bharatiya Janata Party and some in the film industry for his remarks on intolerance in the country.

The Congress, however, stoutly defended the actor-producer.

Aamir's candid remarks at an awards event in New Delhi the previous day set Twitter abuzz and left the film fraternity divided.

Aamir, 50, had said: "For the last six to eight months, there has been a growing despondency I would say. Kiran (wife Kiran Rao) and I have lived all our life in India. When I sit at home and talk to Kiran, for the first time she said, 'Should we move out of India?' Now that's a very disastrous and a big comment to make to me."
