Harshvardhan Rane says he won't work with Mawra Hocane in Sanam Teri Kasam sequel. Taking to Instagram, he wrote, "While I am grateful for the experience, however, as things stand, and after reading the direct comments made about my country, I have made a decision to respectfully decline to be a part of Sanam Teri Kasam Part 2 if there is any possibility of the previous cast being repeated."

His statement comes in response to Mawra’s comments regarding Operation Sindoor. She called it a “cowardly attack”. She also wrote on X, "Strongly condemn India’s cowardly attack on Pakistan… Innocent civilians have lost their lives… May Allah protect us all… May sense prevail… Ya Allah ho Ya Hafizo."

India launched Operation Sindoor in retaliation for the terror attack in Pahalgam on 22 April. The operation was launched on May 7 – which targetted military action against terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir.
