"Have we conveniently blocked what we don’t want to address? This is beyond lines drawn on sand," tweeted Mahira Khan.

Pakistani celebrities have slammed Indian government's move against the Kashmiri people's right to self determination.

India's government revoked Kashmir's special status with a presidential order Monday as thousands of newly deployed troops arrived and some internet and phone services were cut in the Himalayan region where most people oppose Indian rule.

Article 370 of India's Constitution, which was revoked today, gave Kashmir its own constitution and decision-making rights for all matters except for defence, communications and foreign affairs. The article also forbade Indians outside the state from permanently settling, buying land, holding local government jobs and securing educational scholarships.

Critics of India's Hindu nationalist-led government see the move as an attempt to dilute the demographics of Muslim-majority Kashmir with Hindu settlers.

Amidst the chaos, Pakistani celebrities took to social media to condemn New Delhi's actions.

It started with Hamza Ali Abbasi appealing to Pakistani artists to publicly condemn human rights violations in occupied Kashmir.

No need to prove anything, what's wrong with asking them what they think about what's going on? They took the initiative themselves by partaking in peace making gestures, but we can't ask them their opinion? Strange.

Because of Hamza Ali Abbasi strong tweet.
