Earlier, Bollywood actor Anupam Kher was denied visa to attend the Karachi Literature Festival. Kher had said that he was denied a visa for two reasons. "Has my visa been denied because I speak about India's rich tradition of tolerance or I am a Kashmiri Pandit who may expose Pak terror nexus?," Kher tweeted.
