Bollywood actor Jaaved Jaferi was the first to share his reaction on X. The actor tweeted- \u201cOne of my favourite actors stirred a hornet\u2019s nest. More may arise, in other countries. Not all \u2018democratic\u2019 countries are as accepting towards independent opinions as US. Let\u2019s see if this affects his work in Hollywood. Some powers that be are vindictive.\u201d\n\n\n\n

One user wrote- \u201cBut our country has all spineless so called stars, who will go to any extreme to please netas.\u201d\n\n\n\n

A second one said, \u201cWhy is political\/electoral disappointment leads to despondency to an extent that people decide to leave the soil they were born in, grew up & worked hard to become what they are!\u201d\n\n\n\n

Tom Hanks and Forrest Gump\n\n\n\n

Talking about why it flopped, Khan said in an interview, \u201cIt\u2019s a film close to my heart. Advait, Kareena and the whole cast and crew worked hard and it didn\u2019t do well. Two things happened, after a long time my film didn\u2019t work, so family and friends would come home to ask me, \u2018If I\u2019m okay?\u201d\n\n\n\n

The actor added, \u201cI realised that I\u2019m getting a lot of love after a flop. That was the funny side of it. The real side is, failure teaches you what really has gone wrong. It gives you an opportunity to understand what was your mistake in terms of communicating that story.\u201d\n\n\n\n
