Boycott Abir Gulaal trends: In a horrifying turn of events, 26 tourists were shot dead in Pahalgam, Kashmir, on Tuesday afternoon. The attack took place in Baisaran Valley, also known as ‘mini Switzerland’. As tourists had gathered in the valley- some for their honeymoon, while others for a vacation, a group of terrorists opened fire on them. In the aftermath of the deadliest Pahalgam terror attack, the upcoming release of Pakistani actor Fawad Khan’s movie Abir Gulaal in India, has sparked a heated debate online with Twitterati calling for the film’s boycott.
