Saheefa, in a post on her Instagram Stories, questioned, "While in the West everyone is blocking Hollywood celebrities and influencers, what are we doing about Bollywood?"

She added, "Our neighbouring country where we are eager to work, and where we speak so highly of them in our interviews, NONE of them have spoken against the ongoing genocide''.

She further wrote, "Please stop wishing them birthdays and hyping them up. Their government has banned us from working "for them." Waisay bhee in the past we were rarely offered decent roles, and now, during this genocide, the whole of India is silent''.

"It's time that we focus on our craft, make better films and dramas, and stop seeking validation from them or anyone,'' she concluded her post.

Meanwhile, Indian celebs have showed their support for Palestine post Israel's attack on Rafah. Actors like Alia Bhatt, Samantha Ruth Prabu, Dia Mirza, Sonakshi Sinha, Varun Dhawan, and Triptii Dimri, among others have extended support to Palestine on social media.

As per a report in Dawn, the list of Bollywood A-listers who have spoken up about the Israeli's attacks on Gaza is short. As per the report, in October 2023, actor Sonam Kapoor was one of the first A-list Bollywood celebrities to show her support for Palestine on social media.
