He wrote, “On a personal note, I’d like to say this. I was in Pahalgam barely 2 months ago. I have always felt a deep connection and love for Kashmir and have always found the people to be kind and helpful. I’ve met some beautiful souls there. My heart aches to imagine the loss that the victims of these awful attacks are facing”.
Further, Ishaan added, “Let’s not forget Kashmir has long been damaged. A place that is often called heaven on earth is deeply wounded by acts like these and the lives of its people are indelibly affected. We stand to be tested not for our politics, not for our religion, but for our HUMANITY”.

He shared, “Let’s never forget and let’s direct our collective anger towards accounting for JUSTICE and not blind hatred.
