In a powerful gesture of solidarity and hope, acclaimed actor Atul Kulkarni arrived in Pahalgam, Kashmir on Sunday, just four days after a brutal terror attack shook the valley. At a time when tourism in the region is witnessing a sharp decline and social media is abuzz with concerns over safety, hostility, and alleged price hikes, Kulkarni’s visit sends a strong message of peace and unity.
“Ask anyone who has visited Kashmir in the past, they will tell you what Kashmiriyat truly means,” said Kulkarni, referring to the region’s centuries-old tradition of communal harmony and cultural inclusiveness. “Love is the only remedy. You cannot hate and try to find solutions,” he added, urging people to see beyond the fear and focus on healing.
His presence in the region comes as a reassurance to locals and tourists alike, reinforcing faith in the spirit of Kashmir and highlighting the need for continued engagement, empathy, and understanding during troubled times.
