Pakistani actress Mahira Khan is facing angry backlash for her ‘Kashmir bleeds’ tweet, with many online slamming her emotions and telling her to keep her “dirty nose” out of it.

Khan was among an array of Indian and Pakistani celebrities who weighed in on India’s decision to revoke Jammu and Kashmir’s special status giving the region autonomy, with some commending Prime Minister Narendra Modi and others decrying the move.
