Sonu Nigam: Morning. New agendas. New dreams. World moves on. How sad. But 4 sm, world ended yesterday. Now they shall live with d corpse of their life.
Shekhar Ravjiani: My heart goes out to the innocent souls that lose their lives everyday to acts of terror. Pray that humanity prevails someday. There can be no cause that is worth the price of the lives of innocent women and children...there is no excuse for this mindless murder. Blood has been boiling and heart has been crying all day. You animals!!! They were innocent children you heartless beasts! #PeshawarAttack
Babul Supriyo: I plead the World to stand up against this Barbaric Act & DESTROY Taliban, ISIS etc!! How can we let the Bad continue to win over the Good?
Mika Singh: Those who kill innocent people don't belong to any religion.. It's ridiculous and shame on them..
Vishal Dadlani: This happens when you mix religion and politics. It's a sad, sick world, where kids are killed in the name of God and politics. #Peshawar. No God will ever forgive the Taliban for this. They're forever condemned, and I hope they don't even get burials when they die. #Peshawar. The biggest threat to humanity isn't nuclear weaponry. It's religious fundamentalism. How can anyone kill innocent kids? B*****ds! #Peshawar. Where is God now!? What harm have those kids caused? What is God doing to stop this? Humanity must discard religion if it is to survive.
Papon: Killing School Kids?!! Where r we heading now?!Who instigates such cowardly acts! The keepers of religion & politics?All for power?#Peshawar
Shreya Ghoshal: Speechless, angry, numb, disgusted, hurt, helpless. #PeshawarAttack My prayers to all those innocent children who lost their lives. Did God know that creating humans is going to be His biggest mistake.. Creating such evil monsters amongst us was in His greater plan?
