SRK is fully aligned with the govt for years now, we have ample instances of it so I will not be debating that with you if you want to believe he is unaligned cause it fits your image of him. I am more interested in what gave you the sign that Adi is not aligned with the govt?
Okay, I choose your post to reply...those who are interested in my answer will either accept my take or not - to me that doesn't matter how certain people here perceive me. Anyways, It's not the first time, I wrote about this subject.
First of all, I finally noticed that I always used the wrong word for what I meant...I should have used the expression of "get in line" instead of "align oneself to" the latter having more the meaning of "adapt to a situation one can't change" or "conform to a certain etiquette". So, elaichichai, in this sense SRK aligned. Those who call him M's bootlicker are wrong but they certainly love this thought ...
As for my "image of him" - I simply have no specific image of SRK, I don't need one. It may be hard to understand because I almost always focus on what I see and know as positive about and in SRK when writing here... quite seldom, I feel the need to focus on the negative side of those who have a special place in my life.
Aditya, I mainly know through his work and through people who know him. He neither 'got in line' which is visible here for everyone who wants to see it through the stories /narrative in certain YRF-movies (three examples are from the Spy-Universe: Pathaan, Tiger 3, War 2).
