Hina Khan on an obsessive fan: I have blocked him so many times, but he keeps coming back

After making a mark on the television with shows like Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, Bigg Boss, and Kasautii Zindagi Kay, Hina Khan is now all set to rule Bollywood. The actress will be making her big-screen debut with the film Hacked. The film revolves around hacking and obsession.


We recently met Hina and asked her if she has come across any obsessed fan and if she has faced any experience that scared her. To which the actress said, “Yes, twice or thrice. There was this guy who used to call me and send me videos. Those videos used to be very scary. He still does it sometimes. But I think that guy is a fan, how can I complain about him? He would send me videos of crying and howling that please talk to me, meet me. Meet me tomorrow, at 11 o’clock I am coming to meet you. I don’t even know who he is. Then I used to block him and then he used to pick up another number message me from that number and send me videos. Then I used to block him again. So, I have blocked him so many times, but he keeps coming back and I can’t do anything about it.”

“I being an actor, a public figure, can’t do anything about it. So, that’s okay, that’s their love, but obviously it’s kind of obsession and you can’t get into someone’s personal space like that, they (fans) don’t understand this and that’s why we don’t have any alternative than to block them," Hina added.

Directed by Vikram Bhatt, Hacked also stars Rohan Shah, Mohit Malhotra, and Sid Makkar. It will be hitting the screens on 7th February 2020.

What Britain’s ban on strangulation porn really means and why campaigners say it could backfire

Highlights:

  • Government to criminalise porn that shows strangulation or suffocation during sex.
  • Part of wider plan to fight violence against women and online harm.
  • Tech firms will be forced to block such content or face heavy Ofcom fines.
  • Experts say the ban responds to medical evidence and years of campaigning.

You see it everywhere now. In mainstream pornography, a man’s hands around a woman’s neck. It has become so common that for many, especially the young, it just seems like part of sex, a normal step. The UK government has decided it should not be, and soon, it will be a crime.

The plan is to make possessing or distributing pornographic material that shows sexual strangulation, often called ‘choking’, illegal. This is a specific amendment to the Crime and Policing Bill. Ministers are acting on the back of a stark, independent review. That report found this kind of violence is not just available online, but it is rampant. It has quietly, steadily, become normalised.
