Gabriella Demetriades Comes In Support Of Arjun Rampal
<!––>
Many viewers debated whether expressions like ‘Bharat Mata Ki Jai’ by public figures should be interpreted in a political or purely patriotic context. Among the critics was prominent author Shobhaa De, who penned an article taking issue with Rampal’s comment. Her critique quickly grabbed attention and became a talking point on social media.
What Was The Controversy?
Earlier, at the HELLO! Hall of Fame Awards, Arjun Rampal opened up about witnessing the horrors of the 26/11 attacks firsthand and shared how portraying them in Dhurandhar felt like a personal act of retribution. He said, “On my birthday, I saw the horrors of 26/11 play out. In the morning, when I drove back home, I had to stop at least three times because I felt like I was going to be sick. When Aditya Dhar narrated the 26/11 sequence to me, I knew I was going to have my revenge — and that’s what I did with Dhurandhar. All I want to say is, Bharat Mata Ki Jai.” This reportedly caught the attention of author Shobhaa De, prompting her to publish an article that ignited the controversy.
Fans’ Reaction To The Controversy
The debate also spilled over to social media, where many fans expressed their disagreement with the negative reactions. One Instagram user wrote, “Wow, how does someone saying ‘Bharat Mata Ki Jai’ become problematic to you guys? This is literally nationalism, irrespective of any religious agenda. How does being patriotic to the country one resides in become a point of contention for a select few? This is seriously mind-boggling.”
This incident has further fueled discussions about patriotism, public figures, and freedom of expression, with Rampal’s supporters emphasizing that expressing pride in one’s country should not be controversial. Despite the criticism, the actor continues to receive backing from both fans and peers, showcasing the polarizing but supportive environment surrounding his statements.
Arjun Rampal’s Upcoming Movies

He will headline the platform’s much-anticipated series Billionaire, directed by acclaimed filmmaker Hansal Mehta.
