Shah Rukh Khan condemns Pahalgam terror attack: ‘Words fail to express the sadness and anger….’-OxBig News Network

“Words fail to express the sadness and anger at the treachery and inhumane act of violence that has occurred in Pahalgam. In times like these, one can only turn to God and say a prayer for the families that suffered and express my deepest condolences. May we as a Nation, stand united, strong and get justice against this heinous act,” he wrote.

The attack, which took place in the afternoon on Tuesday, targeted tourists in the picturesque Baisaran Valley—often referred to as “mini Switzerland” for its scenic beauty. According to reports, terrorists descended from the surrounding mountains and opened fire on civilians, many of whom were visiting the area with their families.

SRK’s statement echoed the sentiments of several other Bollywood celebrities who have also condemned the attack. Akshay Kumar, Vicky Kaushal, Janhvi Kapoor, and Sidharth Malhotra were among those who took to social media to express their grief and outrage, and to demand justice for the victims.

The horrifying incident has sent shockwaves across the country. Prime Minister Narendra Modi cut short his official visit to Saudi Arabia to return to India in the wake of the attack. Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah labeled the attack as “much larger than anything we’ve seen directed at civilians in recent years,” underlining the gravity of the situation.
