Ever since the Islamist group toppled the Afghanistan government, a certain section of Indian Muslims have been rooting for them and referring to them as some sort of saviours from the 'oppressive' American forces.
Rajdeep Sardesai was interacting with Bollywood entertainer Naseeruddin Shah who had recently released a video cautioning Indian Muslims against cheering for Taliban after the Islamist group took over Afghanistan.
Tavleen Singh on Sunday took it upon herself to 'defend' Naseeruddin Shah and the Islamists who cancelled him while accusing 'Hindutva trolls' of abusing him.
In the case of Indian 'liberals', all their intellect, their thought process, and talks of progressive ideologies lie firmly at the feet of Islamist radicals.
The timely video of Naseeruddin Shah advising the fellow Muslims against cosying up to the radical Islamists outfits such as the Taliban has created an outrage in the Muslim community.
