On October 19 we saw pictures of the leading celebs of Hindi Cinema along with PM Narendra Modi. Shah Rukh Khan, Sonam Kapoor, Aamir Khan, Ekta Kapoor, Karan Johar, and many others were invited to New Delhi to participate in the Change Within Meet, also an initiative to mark Mahatma Gandhi’s 150th birth anniversary.

It was observed that none of the celebs from South Indian Cinema were invited for this event and that has left some of them upset. Actress-politician Khushbu has a raised a question on why the actors and actresses from South Indian Cinema were neglected.

Why this inequality?” Shah Rukh Khan, Jacqueline Fernandez and Other Bollywood Celebs Post Pictures With PM Narendra Modi from the Change Within Event (View Pics).
