Filmmaker Rohit Shetty spoke on violence which led to communal riots in several parts of Delhi during the trailer launch of Sooryavanshi. The director urged the public to "stay silent" in order to avoid further chaos. His film Sooryavanshi, that stars Akshay Kumar and Katrina Kaif, addresses the theme of communal harmony between Hindus and Muslims, hence Rohit was asked about how he sees the ongoing situation in the country.
Requesting everyone to stay calm and quiet, Rohit said, "It is a very serious issue and a lot of people are talking about it. The best thing right now for all of us would be to stay silent. Our officials, the government, our people are there... To talk about what's happening there is easy while laughing and doing the event here (in Mumbai), so the best thing right now for entire India should be to stay silent."
"Everyone's been saying and the chaos is only increasing. If we stay silent, things will fall in place. There's a CM, others are there. Has anyone seen riots? You'll be petrified. I can give a lecture, people will pat my back, but right now we all should stay silent about this for a few days. Let things sort out, then we all can speak," he added.
The best thing right now is to stay quite for few days till the time all this gets resolved - #RohitShetty on #DelhiRiots at #SooryvanshiTrailer launch#SooryavanshiTrailer @akshaykumar @ajaydevgn @RanveerOfficial #KatrinaKaif @karanjohar @Shibasishsarkar @RelianceEnt pic.twitter.com/17NbRyoNQD
