Ex-COO of Balaji Telefilms Zulfiqar Ahmad Khan have been missing in Kenya for 75 days, now. Actor Karan Kundrra and a close friend of the former have been trying his best to bring light this issue and find answers with immediate effect. He has also joined a petition seeking the ruling government to negotiate and intervene with the Kenyan government and offer aid to find the Khan.

“After Raj Nayak (Former COO of Viacom 18) sir, someone who has worked with him, called me and informed me that it is not a normal disappearance, and that something is fishy. She even mentioned that it can be a potential abduction. That’s when we understood the seriousness about it all. Abhi tak tak lag raha tha ke he is somewhere jahan pe network nahi hoga,” averred Kundrra. The actor also took to Twitter to express the bond the he shared with Zulfiqar.

The 38-year-old actor added that, “It has been over 75 days, and when I went over the articles and posts, I also sensed that it is not a normal case of a person gone missing. There is one article which mentions that he was at the wrong place at the wrong time.”

“The reason we are asking people to sign the petition is to create a buzz because we need the government to actually step in, especially the Government of Kenya to take the matter seriously. We are trying to create as much noise as possible. His family has no clue about his whereabouts. No one knows where he is, what happened to him. It is a very helpless kind of situation.”

The actor reminisces the conversation he has with Khan, just 15 days before he was reported missing. The actor who appeared on reality show ‘Lock Upp’ recalls how both shared a common inclination for travelling.

“He had sent some pictures from Jammu Kashmir as he knew I also love to travel. Kabhi kabhi pata nahi chalta seriousness of the situation. His family needs closure, they should know what happened to him, is he in jail, or if he is even alive,” he continues, “Just thinking about his situation and what he might be going through is scary ke kidhar phase gaya hai, kaisa hai, he might be feeling so alone, and frightened thinking ke pata nahi kab tak zinda rakehnge, the actor ends.”

“He is an Indian citizen, who is missing with a possibility that he might have been kidnapped, or could be a political prisoner. We still need to create awareness and pressure on the Kenyan government and authority. I strongly believe that our efforts will not go to waste. When people will stand up and demand an answer, somebody has to take notice of it. The Indian government is extremely powerful, and has helped so many people in the past. I don’t think they will let go of him,” Kundrra asserted.

“He has been an integral part of the industry, might not be in the front of the camera but behind the camera. A lot of people are behind him, we want to create awareness so that people ask questions, and there is pressure to give us the answers,” he concludes.
