Not democracy, But controversy!!

To get  in to the limelight, you dont have to use your right to Freedom and speech, but take a route of controversy!



Yes, The "Padmaavati" turned "Padmaavat" turmoil  give us the idea, that few set of people " will respect the poetic transcription, but  will not entertain a fictional masterpiece".

How well is this controversy, and how strong are the people to get the order from Supreme court for the clearance of the movie release just in a period of its 2 month ban; Well, a good decision.  

Without prejudice to any community and without hurting the sentiments, Acceptance of a work piece by an artist should not be subjective to the facts, and in case of a fictional art, should never be seen as reality. Not at least  till it becomes more of a ground of criticism crossing borders of laws and civilization.

Sanjay Leela Bhansali, the director of the work, known for his taste for history and historical fiction as movie material, as well as for specializing in grandiose design and colorful backgrounds, chose the story of Chittorgarh’s siege as the setting for his movie. He is not an archaeologist having to do any factual study on the respective part of history.

Is it only in our country where our sentiments either make a world famous artist leave the country  for his objectionable paintings or give them life threatening warnings to perform?

Lets see, how India welcomes the most awaited movie of the celebrated Director. I wish release of a fictional work will not create anymore internal disturbance.

  1. This is not the first time that a movie in India has been attacked by protesting groups which seem to appear out of nowhere.

  2. In a multicultural society like India, such violent extremism has no place if we are to keep our communal harmony intact and sustain ourselves as a vibrant democracy, safeguarding basic human rights.
