I agree Aamir is bad with words and he always suffered due to his crap choice of words whether it was his dog blog against SRK or calling Yash Chopra a liar or calling Chetan Bhagat a publicity seeker etc. This India statement was a disaster and ruined his own deshbhakt image he had made through Sarfarosh, Lagaan, Mangal Pandey, Satyamev Jayate, Dangal etc.
It was no way to talk and he deserved the backlash.
I have never heard about Aamir being with underworld or having property in Dubai etc.
I do agree BW does not make films on other religions probably because India is a Hindu majority nation so films on Hindus are more likely to get audience. Who will be interested to see films questioning practices in Islam, Christianity, Sikhism? How many will relate to them? Now we make films on casteism among Punjab Sikhs, honour killings, female foeticide etc only in Punjabi because it is relatable to majority of audience there. Whereas Bollywood pretends there are no issues in Punjab and all only eat and do balle balle in lush green fields. Films are made for majority in any area.
Though I agree there is fear of backlash and violence or labeled Islamophobic if someone makes films like PK or OMG on Muslims.
After all backlash now I think BW will not make films on any religion.
