Shae Gill Post Supporting Pakistan Army Sparks Backlash Among Indians

Renowned Pakistani singer Shae Gill has once again made headlines, this time not for her voice but for her patriotic stance. During the recent India-Pakistan tensions, Shae Gill shared a story on her Instagram praising the Pakistan Army and commending the bravery of the Pakistani nation.

In her post, she said, “I salute my brave armed forces and courageous nation who demonstrated unmatched bravery against the enemy. The innocent children’s martyrdom is heartbreaking, but I firmly believe they are now in a peaceful place.”

However, her expression of patriotism triggered a strong backlash among some Indian extremist groups on social media. After her Instagram story supporting Pakistan’s military, Indian social media users launched severe criticism and even demanded that her account be blocked.

Indian users shared screenshots of Shae Gill’s Instagram story and posted messages calling for a boycott of Pakistani artists, including sharing lists of Pakistani celebrities.

It’s worth noting that in the past, several well-known Pakistani stars like Mahira Khan, Ali Zafar, Hania Amir, Sajal Ali, and others have faced restrictions or bans on their Instagram accounts within India.

This incident highlights how, amid ongoing tensions, expressions of national pride and love for one’s country can become highly sensitive topics. Such positive expressions often face harsh criticism and demands for censorship, especially during times of conflict.
