Many Bollywood celebrities came forward in the actor’s support claiming that the punishment was too harsh.

Imaan tweeted: “Have Pakistani celebrities completely lost their minds or are they really just this ignorant? The flood of tweets paying respect to a CRIMINAL are disgusting and completely unnecessary. He may be a lot of things but to express respect for a convicted criminal is a new low…”
What’s your take on this? A criminal is a criminal, whether a celebrity, or an ordinary citizen.
