Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub said that he is against religious fundamentalists from all sides, and that he will always stand between the oppressor and the oppressed.
He said since his political identity is 'left of centre', he faced some ideological differences with Kangana. During an interview with Lallantop, he said that Kangana's politics became more prominent after Manikarnika, and that he hasn't spoken to the actress ever since.
Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub's wife Rasika Agashe opened up about the privileges that she lives with as a member of the majority, and said that she would like for minorities to also experience this.
Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub recalled collaborating with Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan and Aamir Khan, and highlighted how each of those experiences was different.
