Debates about PK

The protests against PK doesn't make sense. You are free to express your opinion as PK has done in this movie, without indulging in vandalism. The worst sufferers are neither Raju Hirani nor Aamir Khan who are laughing their way to bank, rather the theater owners and the innocent bystanders.

 

We are a democracy where freedom of opinion should be accepted and respected. You don't like it, don't see it. Period. It's a movie which espouses rational thinking and not to be fooled by Godmen. Our much venerated Swami Dayananda Saraswati and Bibekananda espoused the same. PK is a movie which has an agnostic theme tied to it - not atheism. We are not a theocracy, rather a democracy. So, one has every right to mock at the existing dogma through mediums of art and literature. At the same time the movie has been declared Tax free in two of our most cash rich, revenue surplus states, i.e., UP and Bihar. It's not that our PUTTAR PRADESH (of the son) and Perennial PM aspirant Nitish's SARKAR (government) have suddenly become a champion of free speech, rather they want a piece of the political pie.

 

It's interesting to note the conspicuous silence of the Bollywood fraternity on this subject, yet vindicating themselves as champion hypocrites. They have no qualms preaching social justice, rationalism, challenging stereotyping and dogmas etc on screen, yet hardly anyone has come out of closet to condemn the vandalism and violence related to PK. Their silence is not golden,  it speaks volumes.
