Everyday we see people leave accident victims to die on the road, is that right? But it happens. Understand the difference.

Any study of history would tell you that there is only one reason for war and this money. religion is the opium by which people can incited to commit heinous acts.

Even Ghazani raided the Somnath temple, he did not come to spread his religion, he came for the wealth in the temple. In the 84 riots, mostly people with properties and businesses were targeted and attacked, the goad was religion.

I don't where you got this term love jihad from, it seems to be your own invention. Jihad btw means a "struggle" particularly a "struggle with one's own self and conquering one's own desires in order to follow the path of Allah". If that is what you mean by "Love Jihad" then I'm surprised, because it makes no sense whatsoever.

Moreover it would be best if you stop bringing in religion and jihad and such insidious terms here. They have nothing whatsoever to do with today's show and seem to your own personal preoccupation. reserve all of that to your drawing room.

I guess this show is trying to spark a change in the thinking of people, for instance, people like you topicmaker...

The show is not a flop, this thread re-iterates it , just read the thread, various thoughts and replies, and agree with all the responses.

<font face="Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#996600">u r talking about hindu religion! well, there are many other religions in this world which actually allow marriages between cousins!! there are different rules for differentreligion..different countries...and it is very difficult to judge which one is right and which one not!...but definitely i can not be agree with u...bcoz i can not tolerate such heinous act of killing innocent people in the name of "gotra", "religion"...whatever!! we should try to be a good human being first then we should think about our gotra!!</font>

<font face="Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#996600">one thing i don understand...why it is so much important!? and "jab mia biwi razi to kya karega kazi!"...</font>

I think in a certain part of the southern state it is alright for a girl to marry her maternal uncle. Mostly it's the family's idea for this alliance. What do u hv to say to that? Why are they not sacrificed in the name of honour kiling? This ques posed to comeback maneet.

I live in Singapore and 10 to 20 yrs back,a parents nightmare was the fact that their child will fall in love with someone who's not of the same religion, forget abt caste. It used to be a big thing if an invite was received with an inter religion marriage.

The community at large would attend the wedding but in the hearts of hearts of many parents they would think that this will not happen to me hopefully.

Now we don't bat an eyelid when we receive such invitations, parents accept it easily now. There are lots of intermarriages; north Indian marrying a south Indian or a punjabi or a Sindhi or a chinese or any other religion. The main thing we look for and hope for is that the couple r happy n can lead a happy n successful life. The community that i'm talking abt, the ppl are all from India settled here in sg.

There's no such thing as ppl not accepting inter, this happens mostly in religious denominated countries, pick up any Muslim country, India etc. Till religion and traditions are kept being used as reasons to torture or suppress another human being, we as a humanity on whole cannot progress.

I think it's something India's leaders, media and ppl have to think gravely about.

Can't some law be passed to say that panchaayats are no more legal? Can't we take this on a national issue. Is it impossible? No panchayat will mean at least one form of suppression less.

excellent replies indeed and surely many misconceptions about me and wht i think...it will be interesting to reply to all of you and wud do...

1) It shud be mandatory to take approval of both living parents ( of boy and girl) in case of marriage and in rare cases if they are not alive then government should approve with certain terms and conditions.

I want to thank you for explaining to the topic maker what jihad actually means. He or she is telling amir to do more research while he himself hasn't.

@TM u have missed the wholw point of the show...Amir khan is not propogating inter caste or intereligion marriages...I know most people would prefer tht their kids get married within their community but suppos ur kids disobey and decide to get married by their choice...the parents or community have no right to torture and kill them.
