Vivek Agnihotri - Nobody Should Name Their Child Taimur - Page 6

You are generous and maybe dont care about all this or maybe you come from the group that Taimur(the original one) was a part of that does not mean you can dictate how people in a country should view a particular name associated with massacre of their own.

And what Vivek says is what most Hindus feel.

One would not name a child Adolf in Israel would they now?

And Vivek Agnihotri lives in India so he has every right to his opinion as an Indian.

This forum has a ton of non Indians giving opinions without knowing the historical background.

That is a problem!

Interesting. And how exactly do you know what would be the opinion of 80 cr. (considering most) Hindus on this ? That’s very efficient of you to have it surveyed with these many.

P.S. - I hope, JUST for the sake of humanity, you’re not considering usual Online Bots or Whatsapp Alumni’s as ‘most hindus’.

Please Hindus dont have a problem with anyone naming their child anything, there are many those who have carried out genocides in India

One has to go through history to see what marathas did to people of Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, Bengal and Odisha

But Marathas are popular due to Bollywood being based in Maharashtra

India has a vast history of persecution and coming out of it, thriving so does Hinduism

Not only Hindus but Jewish who faced persecution everywhere found a safe place in India, did we care about their sentiments when our popular TV shows are titled "Hitler Didi"?

Jewish community of India didn't flip out blaming us, calling us antisemitic because they know they are accepted here

Same goes for Zoroastrians

Everyone has a right to opinion but what people name their child is none of our business, don't connect this American stupidity of taking offense with Hinduism

The topic title is "Nobody Should Name Their Child Taimur"...and why? Because 627 years ago a Turco-Mongol named T i m u r (in some scriptures Taimur) conquered the Delhi Sultanate with his army where more than hundred thousand Hindus got killed.

So, what will one see in this movie? A young boy of a Muslim family named Taimur and a lot of slaughtered Hindus. Of course, there will be also Agnihotri's version of how the killing spree could happen...

If in about 500 years mankind still exists, I deeply hope that it has evolved in emotional intelligence as much as it did in technical in current times and no Jew will say 'nobody should name their child Adolf'.
