Hina Khan Responds to Backlash with Powerful Message: “I Will Always Be an Indian First”

Actress Hina Khan has issued a bold and heartfelt response after facing online abuse for expressing support for India in the wake of Operation Sindoor. In a candid social media post, she opened up about the hate and personal attacks she’s endured — not just targeting her patriotism, but also her health, family, and faith. Unfazed by the trolling, Khan reaffirmed her stance with clarity: her identity and loyalty lie firmly with her country.

 

“Go ahead, unfollow me — I don’t care,” Khan wrote defiantly. She addressed the wave of hostility she received from users across the border, some of whom had previously shown her affection. Despite never responding with insults, she noted that her words of support for India were met with salacious comments and threats. The actress expressed disappointment not in political disagreement, but in the lack of basic humanity and decency she encountered.

 

Khan, who has been open about her medical challenges in the past, expressed deep hurt that her condition was used as a target for mockery. Yet, she remained resolute. “What you say defines you. What you choose defines your ideology,” she said, underscoring the broader message of her post — that character is revealed in moments of division. Rather than lash out, she chose to draw a line, reminding her critics that standing up for one's nation doesn't require hate toward another.

 

The actress concluded her note with a strong declaration of identity and patriotism: “I am not anything if I am not an Indian. I will always be an Indian, first.” Her message, shared during a time of heightened national tension following India's military response to the Pahalgam terror attack, resonated with fans and fellow citizens who applauded her courage and clarity. In an age where silence is often easier, Hina Khan’s unwavering voice has become a rare show of both grace and grit.
