With due respect to all religion, caste etc., I have begun to smell a rat here. Yesterday, I too had written off a message that contained words of depth. But seeing this spree of banning, I have begun to feel otherwise. I personally feel it is a matter of give - n - take. The Director & Politicos sign an agreement -
1) The director releases the film.
2) The politicos ban the film & create a furore 'coz it contains derogatory remarks (!) against a particular caste; it gives them political mileage; this is excellent as concerns the fast approaching elections.
3) The director shows sense & says he will delete the remarks. The politicos then withdraw their ban. All are happy.
Both the Politicos & Director have gained what they want - Publicity. In this melee, the ones who have been used very carefully are the members of that Particular Minority. Poor souls!
