True. But just in passing note that even the hyper-nationalist BJP isn't attacking Khan for playing a terrorist. Their Gujarat boycott has entirely to do with comments he made outside the film about the famous Narmada dam which is located in their Gujarat stronghold. It's almost purely a matter of internal party politics. 2nd string party figures in the statewide BJP are trying to wrest the Narmada agenda from Modi in order to challenge his leadership.
