The actor, who has German citizenship and has worked in a number of Hindi films and shows, is disillusioned by the direction in which Iran is heading even after the recent assassination of its supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. “As a 6 year old we were made to chant ‘Death to America, Death to Israel’ in school. These are the things this regime forces upon people. There are so many rights people do not have in that country. This regime has no plans of leaving, it doesn’t listen to its people, people cannot even vote,” Elnaaz told SCREEN in an exclusive interview. “The next leader is just being chosen by them. People don’t have the right to say if they don’t want it, when they protest they are shot down, raped, or imprisoned. How exactly are the Iranians suppose to overthrow this regime, with empty hands? When the regime brings foreign militia …

For years and years, and even today in many countries, women are literally fighting to have a voice and to be able to say what they stand for. So when you live in a country like India where there’s freedom of …
