It is not that, a politician should not be friendly with an actor. But when political organisations pick certain people for protest and leave certain people out of loop, it makes one wonder what is their ulterior motive.
For example, brushing off Salman's tweet on Yakub as brainless one, defending him over his remarks on 26/11 attacks ( http://m.indiatvnews.com/news/india/raj-defends-salman-over-his-remarks-on-26-11-attacks-4601.html ), but picking up on other actor's statements.
Now protest over Pak artists in ADHM. But same people did not have any problem when an Indian singer was rudely replaced at the last minute to be sung by Rahat Fateh Ali Khan.
Raj Takre picked up on Bacchans after Aishwarya was married to their family. Jaya Bacchan's casual joke (Hum UP wale hei), was picked out of context and Amitabh was made to apologise. On the other hand, Shatrughan Sinha always identified himself as Bihari. Though MNS have tiffs with Biharis in state, Raj did not have seem to problems with Shatrughan Sinha or any other senior actor.
Now MNS seems to have issues with ADHM. Everyone knows, what relation does Salman share with its male lead Ranbir. This makes me wonder, whether the noise made by MNS is purely out of patriotism or?
If boycotting a movie is an individual decision, I respect their sentiments. But if it is enforced, I hope ADHM succeeds against bullying.
