Abhijeet reacted to Shah Rukh Khan being called an anti-nationalist

Further, in the same conversation, Abhijeet reacted to Shah Rukh being called an anti-nationalist by many. Talking about the same, the singer mentioned that the actor is the only 'nationalist' among all the Khans. Abhijeet added that Shah Rukh had made movies that promoted the Hindu culture. Elaborating more about it, he said:

"It is very wrong for anyone to call him an anti-nationalist. There is no greater nationalist than Shah Rukh Khan. Take a look at the movies that he has made, Phir Bhi Dil Hia Hindustani, Swades, Asoka. How can anyone say something like this about him? And that too when he has promoted Hindu culture the most in his movies. He is the biggest nationalist. It was because of some people who took our commercial differences to a different angle altogether and started calling him names. Among the khans, Shah Rukh Khan is the only nationalist."
