They fear I-T, ED raids: Akhtar on actors not questioning govt
When asked about film industry not questioning government like it used to, screenwriter-lyricist Javed Akhtar said they fear raids by CBI, Income-Tax department and ED. Akhtar cited example of actress Meryl Streep calling out then-US President Donald Trump in 2017 over mimicking a disabled reporter. "Meryl Streep gave a statement...but there was no income tax raid on her," he added.
