The Aamir Khan Story – Does Freedom of Speech in India Come with Strings Attached?

Probable Reasons Why Aamir Khan Feels Unsafe In India

For those of you who are wondering what reasons the great Aamir Khan had for denouncing his country so openly at the Ramnath Goenka Awards festival, here is what we presume went through his mind when he made these remarks.

  1. While Aamir Khan goes around campaigning for a Diwali that is cracker-less in order to reduce the noise pollution and chances of mishaps, he was personally affronted when asked by ‘communal’ people to celebrate Eid without the spilling of blood. This is perhaps an unfair deal for the superstar.
  2. Then comes the impolite language that was used against him by AIB Roast. Why can’t people be more sensitive and make use of Bose DK instead as that is clearly so much more decent.
  3. Three Khans are known to dominate Bollywood life, while Akshay Kumar bags the fourth spot. This for Aamir probably seems like a situation that prompts the question of whether we are living in a Hindu Rashtra
  4. The fact that he has married two Hindu Women and three Muslim children along with the worry of how much freedom of religion his Muslim kids will be able to enjoy in a Hindu-dominated nation worries him too.
  5. Despite being associated with the ARY network of Pakistan that is known for openly threatening a bloody conquest of India, he still cannot understand why people are questioning his patriotism.
  6. Another problem that worries Aamir Khan about India is that when a Muslim man who has an affair with a Catholic in the UK but at the same time, is married to a Hindu woman, what religion do his children take?
  7. The notion that people may dial wrong numbers when in a temple when it would be smarter to go to Hajj and dial the right number like he did is probably also a matter of concern.
  8. On a personal note, the father and brother of this superstar do not feel safe with him so how can anyone expect him to find the country safe anymore?
  9. While actresses always don some of the prettiest heels when acting or even in their personal life. The fact that he has to wear them instead of the actresses when appearing on the big screen is probably the biggest affront to the superstar. His height has nothing to do with it, it’s probably just a sign of intolerance against Muslims.
  10. Another sign of India’s intolerance according to him is the constant association of daily killings in the name of Islam with Islam. More than this, it disturbs him that the killing of a Dadri man has still not been taken up as a case of India’s intolerance.

So for those of you who may be thinking that this guy may have something worth saying, perhaps it is time you re-think your opinion.
