I will just point out 2 scenes.
1) Aamir sticks posters of Hindu Devi-Devtas on the public walls and on top saying "lapata" (missing). okay, wud Hirani put poster saying "ALLAH_lapata" or "Mohammad- Lapata" or "Jesus-Lapata" or "Guru Nanak- Lapata" ???????????? Afterall its supposed be against all religins, right? No, he wont coz he knows what kinda backlash he wud get...
2) In TV show, why just Aamir Vs swamiji, why not a Mullah or Preist also invited.. it wud have been so much fun, wouldnt it? But No..
Flaws... The alien aamir has superpowers... he can held a woman's hands and download her Bhojpuri language knowledge in his brain and start speaking Bhojpuri... in fact without even touching some1 he can why that oldman took money from Anushka by cheating or in the end he knows all abt Anushka- SSr lovestory... superpowers yes... then why is acting like a innocent fool thruout the movie???
Nobody answered that? It wud only take one more minute to stick those posters... not an hour.
Those who r defending the movie at a cost of religious beliefs... answer that.
Of course Raju cant show all the ills of all religions in 3 hours movie, esp when he had to show innocent women n children being butchered like they r flies... it wont be funny, wud it be?
India has the highest Hindu population but therez only one Hindu nation-Nepal. India has the 2nd largest muslim population after Indonasia. India has the largest Sikh population. Largest Jain poulation. Millions of Bhudhists and Christians(2.2 Crs=22 Millions christians). So dont give this crap abt Hindusim is targeted coz its the majority.
Hidusim is tolerant and we always asks questions. In BW itself.. remember Amitabh's dialog in front of a temple "Aaaj khush to bahot honge tum" and countless movies where heros/ heroines blame and blast Gods for something going wrong in their lives.
In fact, Bhagwad Gita came to existance coz Arjun kept asking questions to Lord Krishna..
We dont need a movie teach us what Hindusim is and how we can mock it and make fun of it.
The BO figures suggest Hinduism is still liberal, polite and tolerant society. Somthing to be proud of.
But if some questions asked agaisnt my religion... then some questions shoud be asked agaisnt the motives of the makers of the movie... right?
