Its surprising that Rediff people cant search a better option to Saha Rukh Khan for Indias Great Pride. I think dimak ko jung laga hain. Cant we give scientists as an option. Cant we have Dr. Prakash Amte as an Option. Cant we have Mother Teressa as an option. There are co many great persons as an option please start thinking beyond film industry. Film Industry persons does not make any pride to the nation.

When I see a film or a serial, I recollect the days of my childhood. There were nautankies just like circuses. The group of people doing different dramas of Ramayana, Prahlad Bhagat, Krishan Janamashtmi & Holi,Ras Lila of Krishna. There used to be only gents and the ladies' role was also done by the young boys. We used to eagerly wait for them. Then came the cinema but silent and most of the films were stunt type and Laurel & Hardy and Charlie Chaplin were the most popular ones. The point is, when we saw the actors in the morning doing their normal duties & for their daily needs to the market and taking bath in the open. Nothing looked as strange. They were rather poor people - moving from one place to another for their earnings & livings.THEN CAME THE PARTITION OF INDIA. Bombay and Calcutta became centres of movie makings. Kapoor family who came from Peshawar, settled in Bombay. Their father Mr. Priviraj Kapoor was a master of drama Art if nautanky types but done in halls hired by producers who came in this field.Their popular dramas like 'Pathan' became a hit and the public of the time became mad to see his new style of dialogue speaking and acting. Slowly they were approached to make movies and for that they had earned so much that Kapoor Studios were created - the richest of the time. No doubt, entertainment apart, they gave a full turn to the Art. You can imagine very well how many arts have developed along with the coming of movies - stil SRK is an actor. No more

Imust say that now a days school children should not perform all filmi music to express but they should be given a chance to play on their traditional skits from which they will come to know why India was known as golden bird.what legacy we have taken from our forefathers.I was disappointed to see people performing all these.

I fully agree that the Filmi people are no great achievers except a selected few like the late Balraj Sahni ,Amitabh Bachan etc., And definitely Sharuk Khan does not deserve the India Great Pride. He is arrogant and the success has gone into his head. It is evdent from the way he reacted to Sunil Gavaskar's views on the four captain theory. He had the adaucity to say that Sunil Gavaskar has not played the T20version of the game.But he should first admit that his Kolkata Night Riders coach Buchanan has not even played test cricket. Other than talking some BAKWAS and showing off his not so attractive face there is nothing that he can boast off as achievement.

MS Manisha, you are 100% right when you have asked the people of India to find an alternative to actor Shah Rukh Khan, afterall they are only 'acting' - the Karma is that which is done for others who need that. For example: at the time of Tsunami, cyclones, floods and quakes and calamities and the partitions & the riots. Just to immitage faces, to indulge in fake fights and show up as heroes doing all good to the people is a sheer nonsense and those who like to give them reward for this are absolutely wrong. Ar.. do'nt you see their purses filled in No.1 and No.2 money and their posh way life. But, the other side is also black. We have no personality in Politics, In universities, in Public life, In Spiritual life and all what is arround us is a crowd of 'thugs' filling their own homes not the pockets because pockets are too small.
