Veteran Bollywood actor Nana Patekar has come out in support of the ban on Pakistani actors in India.

Expressing his views, Nana Patekar said,"Pakistani actors and others come later, first comes my country. I don't know anyone other than my country and would never like to know. Actors are like bed bugs in front of the country, we don't have any worth."

Taking a jibe at Salman Khan saying, "No hero can be better than the soldiers. We actors are just common people, the real heroes are our soldiers. Don't pay attention to what we say, don't give this much importance to any one. And those who keep on speaking, they don't deserve that much importance."

Salman Khan had earlier said ''They (Pakistani Actors) are artists, not terrorists. It’s the government who gives them work permits and visas. Art and terrorism should not be mixed.''
