Death Threats for Marrying Hindu Actress

Nagarjuna Akkineni-starrer ‘Super’ fame Ayesha Takia’s husband Farhan Azmi has reportedly received death threats for committing ‘Love Jihad’ (marrying a Hindu woman, Ayesha).

Azmi, who is the son of controversial Maharashtar MLA Abu Azmi, married Ayesha Takia in 2009 and they have a 5-year-old son. The young man receiving threats after these many years of marriage has become a talking point in Mumbai political and film circles. He even lodged a police complaint in this regard.

Farhan Azmi’s complaint states that a political outfit named ‘Hindu Sena’ threatened him over phone for marrying Ayesha Takia, who is a Hindu woman. “You all are animals. Have you forgotten that you have indulged in Love Jihad by marrying a Hindu girl?” the unidentified caller reportedly told the actress’ husband.

It however is suspected that the primary target of the Hindu outfit was not Ayesha but her father-in-law Abu Azmi, who often makes controversial statements. Abu Azmi has recently commented about singer Suchitra Krishnamoorthi’, who had earlier ridiculed ‘Azaan’ (morning call for Muslims to prayer).

The Hindu political outfit is reportedly offended by the response of Azmi towards Suchitra, and told his son over phone, “Ask your father to stop shouting like an animal else he will be bumped off.”

Ever since her marriage, Ayesha somehow has been becoming a victim whenever her father-in-law makes an absurd statement.
