Aamir Khan has never shied away from voicing his opinions, be it on social issues or political agendas. When the actor spoke at the Ramnath Goenka Excellence Awards about the intolerance issue and his concerns and fears, he received severe backlash from all sections - political and Bollywood.
Following this backlash, Aamir's security has been beefed up on Tuesday. This happened after some political activists protested outside the actor's house, shouting slogans and abuses. DCP (Detection) Dhananjay Kulkarni told a news portal, “We have provided adequate police security to the actor. There hasn’t been any protest by anyone in the city or at Khan’s house, but we have information that some outfits may hold a protest.”
The controversy kicked off on Monday when Khan said that he was ‘alarmed’ by a number of incidences and his wife Kiran Rao even suggested that they should probably leave the country. The actor also supported the B-Town celebs who are returning their awards, saying that one of the ways for creative people to express their dissatisfaction or disappointment is to return their awards. He said he also feels that the sense of insecurity and fear has been growing in the past six or eight months.
Looks like this one will go a long way! Aamir has a tough road ahead by the looks of it.
