I would totally agree with you and your arguments provided tomorrow you create a similar video for benjamin franklin/JF Kennedy and post it oninternet and then lets see what are the reactions. You might be a gr8 actor/comedian but there are certain boudaries which should be respected which i guess you have long forgotten after living in US for so long

there is something about Bush being aired each day; america is a free society Anand Chavan. It isn't like India which preaches "freedom of thought" and "liberty to speak" and then censors it the next moment when you speak about Gandhi or Nehru in a negative way.

Anand,
Ever heard of Freedom of Speech ? In the US, everybody is lampooned, including JFK, George W, Ben Franklin etc. Gandhi is not being hurt by this video. All it did was expose the narrow-mindedness of Indians like you.

I think comparison doesn't hold up. There are funny videos in youtube on JFK, Martin Luther King etc... This video hurt the sentiments of a nation and a billion people and was done in bad taste. Thats reason enough for me to disagre with Mr Gautham.
