Kareenas morphed picture used for VHP's campaign
The photograph of Kareena Kapoor which is doing the rounds on Twitter shows half of her face covered by a niqab. India's Vishwa Hindu Parishad is using that photograph to warn against 'love jihad' - the alleged conspiracy by young Muslim men to romance Hindu women and then make them convert after getting married. The photograph is on the cover of a magazine published by the young women's cell within the VHP.
According to media reports the right-wing group has said Kareena Kapoor cancan sue if she has objections to the morphed photo of hers.'If actress Kareena Kapoor has a problem with this the doors of Court are always open for her' said Prakash Sharma of the VHP in a comment to news agency ANI.
The 34-year-old actress is married to actor Saif Ali Khan. She has not converted to Islam but has added 'Khan' to her last name.
Her husband actor Saif Ali Khan had written an opinion piece for Indian Express in October 2014 where he said'When Kareena and I married there were similar death threats with people on the Net saying ridiculous things about'love jihad'. We follow whatever religion or spiritual practice we believe in. We talk about them and respect each other's views. I hope our children will do the same.'
