    The allegations, however, aren't frivolous as pictures of some stars with rumored ISI agents have surfaced.

    First, a bit about the criticism Bollywood is receiving

    First, a bit about the criticism Bollywood is receiving
  • The glamorous universe was slammed after Sushant, a charming actor, allegedly took his life last month. Despite being associated with successful movies in his short-lived career, he was sidelined by the "A-list camp".

    Subsequently, issues like bullying, favoritism, Bollywood's penchant for not crediting writers, got attention.

    When the surface was scratched even more, the scandalous dark side of the industry got attention.

  • Beginning

    A Twitter user started the conversation

    A Twitter user started the conversation
  • The controversy started after a Twitter user Al iskandar posted a series of tweets about Tony Ashai, a Kashmiri based in the United States, who has been allegedly instigating the youth of the Valley to pick up arms against India.

    Al quoted a tweet by Ashai where he lamented how resident Kashmiris aren't "doing enough," despite the diaspora outside "working for the cause."

    Look who is talking the man @tonyashai (Aka Aziz Ashai) who himself is sitting in the cozy rooms of California and provoking Kashmiri Youth to Pick-up Stones and Guns while his own Son Bilal Ashai recently graduated from Los Angeles @USC with Masters Degree.

    Al also revealed Ashai has worked closely with Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan and his wife Gauri.

  • Do you know?

    "SRK is a patriot, but he is feeding a snake"

  • Al claimed SRK used a lot of Ashai's "infrastructure brains," and Ashai worked on Gauri's projects as well. "SRK is a patriot person himself who is not aware of the Snake-like Tony Ashai whom he is feeding for his business projects, (sic)" one tweet read.

  • Twitter Post

    Here is the complete thread

  • The Gesture of Tony Ashai with Prime Minister Niyazi says it all.

    It was attended by Hrithik Roshan, Ranveer Singh, Anil Kapoor, Sonam Kapoor, and Suniel Shetty.

    Organizer of Bollywood's events also nurtures anti-India sentiments

  • Another name that has figured in social media is Rehan Siddiqui, who is believed to be close to some Bollywood personalities.

    He is known for organizing international concerts featuring Bollywood stars. Last year, celebrities like Udit Narayan, Diljit Dosanjh, and Salman Khan were sent a notice regarding the said concerts. Reportedly, most of them replied that they had canceled the events.

  • As this controversy raged, BJP's National Vice-President Baijayant Panda today said that Bollywood receives funding from mafia operating in Pakistan.

    "It looks like these connections still exist. Friends of many celebrities have pictures with Pakistan's generals and ISI. They should renounce such links," Panda told ANI.

    Meanwhile, Ashai tweeted that he would drag journalists, alleging his links with ISI, to US courts.

  • Twitter Post

    It's a conspiracy theory: Ashai

  • This conspiracy theory that Indian media is peddling about me being an ISI agent is baseless. These journalists either put out a proof or apologize unconditionally. Short of that you will be sued individually in US Courts and will have to prove it there.
