What Aamir said is a reality, says Azam Khan

Lucknow, Nov 24 : Senior Samajwadi Party leader Azam Khan on Tuesday came out in support of Bollywood actor Aamir Khan arguing what he said was not about intolerance but a reality and exhorted people not to target the film star.

"What he (Aamir) has said is not about intolerance but a reality and he should not be targeted for it," he told reporters here.

Khan, who also sent a letter to Aamir, said that whatever the actor said were feelings of his wife, a Hindu who is insecure about the future of her children under the present circumstances.

"When Aamir Khan's wife is not feeling safe, can you imagine what the common people might be feeling," he asked.
