Actor Anupam Kher has become the latest film personality to weigh in on the ongoing student protest at Jantar Mantar over the NEET paper leak. As the movement continues to divide the film fraternity, Kher released a video message expressing solidarity with the students while cautioning them against allowing others to hijack their cause for political or ideological agendas. The protest has seen contrasting responses from celebrities. While actors such as Shabana Azmi and Prakash Raj have attended the demonstrations and joined the march towards Parliament, lyricist Manoj Muntashir recently said he would not visit Jantar Mantar, claiming the protest had been taken over by people whose ideologies he does not support.
‘Don’t let them use your voice for their hidden agenda’
Sharing a video on X, Kher addressed the students directly. “My greetings to all students. A few days ago, when I saw pictures of your demonstrations, I felt disturbed and saddened. No student should have to go through such circumstances just to make their voice heard. I too was once a student. I had dreams, I asked questions and I questioned the system. Even today, hundreds of students study at our institution, so I understand your anxiety, anger and hopes.”
Calling student movements the “most honest voice” of society, he added: “In my opinion, a student movement is the most honest voice of our society. Students have no selfish motives. They are worried about their future, they care for their rights and they dream of making this country better. From the bottom of my heart, I stand with you.”
