I had a glimpse of the pictures aht this student of MS had painted on the name of arts. This dumb duffer had no clue himself of what he had done in the name of modern art. To me this guy is frustrated and desparate. I heard Mr. Jayant Kriplani and Kitu Gidvani saying "Mr. Modi wake up" on NDTV. Jayant who is not seen in any movies now a days and Kitu who is just shifting between dubai and mumbai when these kind of page 3 jokers talk about arts one can sense the kind of sensibilities out of the entire issue. Its all bullshit and this hopeless media will kill this country one day.
I've gone through few major news website like cnn-ibn, timesofindia, and others, but couldnt find what really happned and nobody is mentioning what exactly the pictures were about. I found following article interesting and may be truthfull: http://www.dailypioneer.com/columnist1.asp?main_variable=Columnist&file_name=ashok%2Fashok77%2Etxt&writ er=ashok
Is this all political drama, film lobby contribution just because this is Gujarat (Narendra Modi) again?
As someone said once: Anger permeates the room. When you walk in with anger, everyone feels it. Lose the anger and you may win the part.-- Yes We all have Art and a Life. And a desire to share.
It is startling to realize how much ferocious anger we could harbor. The artist wishing and supposing herself/himself to be peaceable, is rocked by anger and that anger surprises. She/He thought she/he might write about love, but what pours out onto the page is pure vitriol.
She/he thought of expressing philosophically and what appears on the page are torrents of fury.
No, the artist is not immune to chronic, even disabling anger: but while she/he cannot avoid it, she can strive...to counterbalance it by really and truly loving those around her/him.
As good as the reasons for anger and hatred may be--as many injuries that we may have received and as many dissappointments as we've may experienced, I understand that anger is a pestilence and a blight on my being. I will not befriend anger nor will I become a hating creature.
Art, is here to stay. May you all enjoy a healthy and creative day. Ashok Nayak

It is not a single case with MF Hussain or Chandramohan.
1. Attack on Mammootty. Indian Film Star Mammootty said DYFI's (Democratic Youth Federation of India -- India's biggest Youth Federation) meeting in Chennai that, If DYFI is strong in Gujarat, the Gujarat Carnage could not have been happened. Sangh Parivar starts to attack him and his pictures.
2. Attack on Yesudas. Yesudas is a world famous singer and he served his god-gifted sound for last 60 years to all the gods and religions like Guruvayurappan (Krishna), Christ, Sabarimala Ayyappan, etc. He declared that he has no religion except the man. He regularly goes to Mookambika and he does not have any restrictions to enter the temple or sing about god. Sangh Parivar does not allow a non-Hindu to enter Temples, even then the Dewaswam Board is ready. We have to understand Shehnai maestro Ustad Bismillah Khan, the Bharat Ratna awardee was the star performer in Varanasi Temple in festivals in every year.
3. Attack on Parzania, Fana, Water like pictures;
It is a daily process. The Sangh Parivar crosses all the limits. We have to condemn and obstruct it. Also we have to make a strong secular foundation.
Take the pledge, we will not allow a communal violence here which occurred after the India-Pakistan partition.
Every indian do have a right to freedom of expression but not at the extent of hurting the sentiments of our fellow beings. Art has been an inherent motivator towards development of our society. I dont understand what use of this out-railed creativity for society..'n' absurd.. educated people are protesting to support this demoralisation of divinity..

I fully agree with that. If muslims can turn violent when Muhhmed was painted nude then what's wrong with Hindu. How the so called secularist will react if paintings are made of Sonia Gandhi ?
Hey guys.. time again to take this extremely seriously.. We should start fighting without wasting anytime. :)
This time i call around all the VHP and xtian group supporters to take the charge. I mean we need to respond to this stupid petition and counter FIR threats.. they seem to have gone out of their mind.. right!
Mr. Jain was just acting on our noble cause of fighting. the reason is insignificant.. and then this time around xtians are there with them too..!
So let's start a fight.. ofcourse education and conduct of examination is secondary to our birthright to fight! We can petition to President about this too.. that this is all conspiracy of seculars, pseudo seculars, conservatives, fundamentalists etc.. :) hehe.. I am sure India is going to be superpower soon and Mr. Narendra Jain is going to be President. He will then setup a ministry of moral conduct and so the next time you go to piss, u will have to apply for a permission from them.. This committee will then setup review all the educational text. shut down the universities if they teach theory of evolution and not what quran, gita, guru granth sahib or bible says.
lol :) some may think it as a description of taliban though.
