In his first
reaction after the amendment to the Citizenship Act and nationwide protests
against it, the top actor wondered as to how Muslims, who chose to stay back in
India following partition will be sent out of the country.

“CAA is
no threat to Muslims, if they face trouble I will be the first person to raise
voice for them,” told sources.

Besides, the
central government has assured that Indian people will have no issues in view
of the Citizenship Amendment Act, he noted.

Alleging
that some political parties were instigating people against CAA for their
selfish interests, he also blamed religious leaders for supporting protests
against the law and dubbed it “very wrong.”

Backing the
National Population Register exercise, he said the drive is “very, very
essential,” and added that the Congress-led government had done it in the
past.
