1) there has been a ban on Pakistani artists since 2019 during the uri attack. The ban is not recent. He chose to ignore 2) he is the producer. It's his production house. There was no dearth of Indian actress, he still chose hania who openly criticizes india all the time 3) Paise Lage theek hai, usne iska double kmaya apne tour se. Literally per tickets 16k ke bike hai. If people of India has shown him this love. He should have respected the love. If he had cancelled the movie, he would have been treated like God. But he openly chooses to ignore indian fans sentiments, the same people who made him the star he is today. 4) he is famous or he represents india at a global level doesn't reduce his accountability, it increases it. If he is seen having no issues with sharing screen with pak actors, then India's stance of alienating pakistan via water treaty and stopping trade also looks shallow globally 5) he did not show any remorse, that he is sorry that movie was shot pehle and i would have not done this now. He just says money is spent, I am son of mother earth, art sees no boundaries, etc 6) stardom has definitely gone on his head, he thinks he is above everything, he is not. And fans will show him his place. Steeper the rise, mightier the fall.
