Sanjay Dutt Demands Action Following Pahalgam Terror Incident
Bollywood star Sanjay Dutt has voicefully condemned the recent terror attack in Pahalgam, labeling it a heinous act against innocent lives. In a post on X (formerly Twitter) on Tuesday, he expressed that remaining silent is not an option in the face of such brutality.
Dutt characterized the attack as a “cold-blooded” act, emphasizing the urgent need for a strong response from the Indian government. He particularly called upon Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah, and Defence Minister Rajnath Singh to take decisive action against the perpetrators. “These terrorists must face the consequences of their actions,” he wrote.
“They killed our people in cold blood. This can’t be forgiven, these terrorists need to know we are not staying quiet. We need to retaliate. I request our Prime Minister @narendramodi ji, Home Minister @AmitShah ji and Defence Minister @rajnathsingh ji to give them what they deserve,” Dutt stated in his tweet.

The attack occurred when a group affiliated with Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) targeted tourists in Baisaran valley, leading to the tragic loss of 27 lives, with many others sustaining injuries. Responsibility for the attack was claimed by The Resistance Front (TRF), a faction associated with LeT, which also shared images of the harmed individuals on social media.
In response to the incident, security forces have been deployed to the area, establishing a cordon and initiating combing operations to ensure safety and apprehend those responsible.
In addition to Dutt’s remarks, fellow actor Akshay Kumar expressed his sadness regarding the tragic event, calling it “horrific.” He stated that it is profoundly evil to harm innocent people and offered his prayers to the victims’ families.
“Horrified to know of the terror attack on tourists in Pahalgam. Sheer evil to kill innocent people like this. Prayers for their families,” Kumar commented.
On the cinematic front, Sanjay Dutt is set to appear in the upcoming action horror comedy film, The Bhootnii, which is scheduled for release on May 1, 2025. Directed by Siddhant Sachdev, the film will feature other notable actors including Sunny Singh, Palak Tiwari, and Mouni Roy.
Furthermore, he has several exciting projects lined up, including Sajid Nadiadwala’s highly anticipated Housefull 5, along with Baaghi 4 and an action-adventure film titled Ranger.
