The RSS magazine, Organiser, put Khan on its cover calling him “The Dragon’s favourite Khan”, a reference to China. This week, the right-wing Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) volunteer organisation, which is the ideological parent of the governing Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), criticised Khan’s ties with Turkey, saying he was “forging friendships with those that are considered enemies of India”. Shah Rukh Khan is one of the most successful Bollywood stars in the past 30 years Facebook has about 300 million users in India. A recent report by The Wall Street Journal said Facebook India executives failed to act against anti-Muslim posts by governing party leaders. His criticism was not limited to social media, where the pro-government users dominate. Khan, one of the biggest Bollywood stars, was soon the top Twitter trending topic along with Erdogan, with Hindu nationalists branding the film star “anti-national” and “unpatriotic” for standing with the “enemy”. India also acted against Malaysia for criticising its Kashmir move by banning the import of palm oil from the Asia Pacific nation. New Delhi told Ankara not to “interfere” in its internal affairs after President Erdogan expressed concern over the deteriorating situation in the Muslim-majority region, which has been under security lockdown since its limited autonomy was removed on August 5, 2019.
