Cannes 2019: Bollywood And TV Celebs Support Of Hina Khan
Updated : May 17, 2019 07:21 PM IST
It is not every year that you see a TV star making their way to Cannes for their work. It is also not every day that you see a TV star own the Cannes Red Carpet and slay it with her/his look. Well, Hina Khan did something extraordinary when she stepped onto the Cannes Red Carpet and won the game like a diva. While friends and fans from the TV fraternity are proud of her and celebrating, the editor of a leading magazine posted something like this:
Cannes 2019: Bollywood And TV Celebs Support Of Hina Khan After Magazine Editor Mocks Her Cannes Appearance!
Well, while the editor later did clarify himself and said that his post was misconstrued, it did look a little odd and shocking. Most of the celebs from TV fraternity and some from Bollywood found the post to be extremely demeaning and derogatory and took a firm stand against it. They came out in support of Hina Khan.
The list includes names like Arjun Bijlani, Ekta Kapoor, Farah Khan, Suyyash Rai, Ridhi Dogra, Rangoli Chandel, Aneri Vajani, Nia Sharma, Karanvir Bohra, Nakuul Mehta and many more. Here is how they supported Hina:

6. Nakuul Mehta

To a continued journey of evolution and breaking norms, @eyehinakhan ! You go girl ?
7. Ridhi Dogra

I may not be doing tv currently but I'm so proud of working in television. And I don't intend to stand around watch as people try to dull this girl's sparkle (although it can't) by demeaning her hard work and efforts as a professional. pic.twitter.com/f3ZzFYFUVO
This is what Hina Khan had to say about the entire controversy:
undefined src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" >I was persistent, I m constant n I will b efficient again n again again. Don’t know where I belong, don’t know if I have to, as d Place don’t define me! Bcause as always I will work my a** off n I will make my own PLACE. My promise,a proud outsider from my Chandiwali studios. ?
