8th January 2015

The latest issue of Himalaya Dhwani magazine has created a stir in Bollywood.

The magazine cover features morphed face of Kareena Kapoor Khan half with a bindi and sindoor, while the other half with in a burqa.  

This controversial magazine cover is brought out by Vishwa Hindu Parishad known as Durga Vahini.

Their latest campaign speaks about Hindu women converting to another religion, post their marriages to Muslim men. The campaign is addressed as 'Love Jihad'.

Rajini Thukral, the magazine coordinator said, "She (Kareena) is a celebrity. The youth try to emulate celebrities. They think if she can do so, why not us?"

The publication has also commented that they are not worried of being sued for this picture, "If actress Kareena Kapoor has a problem with this, the doors of court are always open for her."

Recently in an interview with a leading publication, Saif Ali Khan shared that how the couple had to face several issues, due to the religious difference. 

Saif 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."
