Calling it a "cowardly act", Bollywood celebrities such as Akshay Kumar, Alia Bhatt, Priyanka Chopra, R Madhavan and others expressed shock over the terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir's Pulwama that killed at least 37 CRPF personnel on Thursday.
In one of the deadliest terror attacks in Jammu and Kashmir's three decades of militancy, a Jaish-e-Mohammed suicide bomber rammed an explosives-laden vehicle into a Central Resrve Police Force (CRPF) bus in Pulwama district, killing at least 37 personnel and leaving many critically wounded.
Veteran actor Shabana Azmi called the terror attack a "heinous" crime.

My heart goes out to the families of the jawans who lost their lives and are injured. To those brave hearts departed ..may their souls rest in peace."
Actor Rishi Kapoor termed the attack "shameful, shocking, reprehensible".
"Absolute act of cowardice. Perpetrators of this heinous crime cannot be friends with people of Kashmir. We stand by the bereaved families," he wrote on the microblogging website.
