Amir Khan

So, I live in a country where Shiv Sena is offering 1 lakh as reward to anyone who slaps Aamir Khan. I live in a country where the most educated Shiv Sena classifies nationality based on meat. I also live in a country where the very tolerant Shiv Sena wants to ban Fawad Khan and Mahira Khan from India.

Okay.

I live in a country where our very humble Prime Minister, Modi ji, wants to incorporate Hindutva in the School Syllabus. I want to know what harm Islam or Christianity created. I live in a country where Smriti Irani is one of the faces in the news channels.

I live in a country where it took months for ‪#‎hokkolorob‬ to attain justice. I also live in a country where Prosenjit still hasn’t received justice, let me not overlook the FTII students. I live in a country where the army men rape the country girls and they are told to be our guard.

I also live in a country where the police beat up students in multiple places because they asked for their right to freedom and expression. I also live in a country where our very own politicians have cases on murders and rapes but they are roaming around fearlessly because India is Incredible.

I live in a country where there is hardly any job for this youth, where people are still struggling to prove that ART IS A WAY OF LIFE. I live in a country where degree matters more than dignity and where people put up Black Dot DP’s to show solidarity instead of believing in what the black dots really stand for! I live in a country where Muslims are told to leave because the CM of Haryana thinks Muslims do not belong to India.

Cool!

Aamir Khan is a hypocrite and he runs Satyamev Jayate and where was he when Mumbai was attacked and the chain of questions followed. India made him a Super star!

REALLY?

Nobody can make you anything. He made himself a star, he made himself worth the tickets you buy and shed tears and come out with a smile because you know he does that right.

He is human first. His surname is secondary. His stardom is not even important because he did abide by the CONSTITUTION OF INDIA and expressed whatever he felt. Also, the media which has over- hyped his statement in a filthy way needs to answer the nation. Aamir Khan and Kiran Rao did not mean or make such a statement.

Why is it so wrong to call this country Intolerant and unsafe? Did you forget Damini or did you forget your days when porn was banned and you spent nights downloading some GB so that the porn ban doesn’t do you any harm!

Or, did you forget your walk against Intolerance when the students of Jadavpur University were beaten up. Or, did you forget the ‘Superstars’ returning their awards because of Intolerance. That time you supported the act and put hash tags and smiled. Aamir Khan makes a statement and you tighten your eye brows? WHY?

Satyamev Jayate is about the Intolerance that you face in your everyday life, it is his way of showing what’s going wrong. He did help lakhs of Indians to live a better life, just by the way. Also, PK wasn’t about mocking Hindu Culture, he just portrayed the superstitious beliefs that we laugh at, as youngsters.

Anyway, it doesn’t matter really. Shiv Sena needs to be a little more educated and must understand the meaning of Patriotism. Modi needs to stop being a hypocrite and must learn that Hindutva will fetch him no respect. He is just going the “Sanskari’ way which doesn’t interest the youth. Aamir and Kiran, yes, I live in one of the most intolerant countries and I feel unsafe here, because, my career, my body, my thoughts and my future is NOT safe here.

Thank you,

An Ashamed Indian.

Unless you’re living under the rock, you already know about the recent controversy on Aamir Khan’s statements on a growing sense of “despondency” and “intolerance” in the country.

In response to the whole controversy, Aamir Khan spoke out today

 

 

 

Neither I, nor my wife Kiran, have any intention of leaving India

 

Here’s the full transcript of his statement

First let me state categorically that neither I, nor my wife Kiran, have any intention of leaving the country. We never did, and nor would we like to in the future. Anyone implying the opposite has either not seen my interview or is deliberately trying to distort what I have said. India is my country, I love it, I feel fortunate for being born here, and this is where I am staying.Secondly, I stand by everything that I have said in my interview.

To all those people who are calling me anti-national, I would like to say that I am proud to be Indian, and I do not need anyone’s permission nor endorsement for that.

To all the people shouting obscenities at me for speaking my heart out, it saddens me to say you are only proving my point.

To all the people who have stood by me, thank you. We have to protect what this beautiful and unique country of ours really stands for. We have to protect its integrity, diversity, inclusiveness, its many languages, its culture, its history, its tolerance, it’s concept of ekantavada, it’s love, sensitivity and its emotional strength.

I would like to end my statement with a poem by Rabindranath Tagore, it’s a prayer really:

Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high, Where knowledge is free, Where the world has not been broken up into fragments, by narrow domestic walls, Where words come out from the depth of truth, Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection, Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way, Into the dreary desert sand of dead habit, Where the mind is led forward by thee, Into ever-widening thought and action, Into that heaven of freedom, my father, let my country awake.

Jai Hind.

Aamir Khan.
