These communal debates have been causing a great damage to the society and since the past three years, we have witnessed a blatant effort by communal forces to affect the viewer’s response on Hindi films. From PK to Padmavat, many controversies have sparked in the industry, but now even before his film has hit the floor, Bollywood superstar Aamir got criticised for his choice of role in epic mythological drama Mahabharatha.
The known news is that Aamir Khan has teamed up with Mukesh Ambani for the prestigious film Mahabharatha, with a budget of Rs. 1000 crores. He’s likely to play either Lord Krishna or Arjun in the project. On a shocking note, a few people on Twitter started questioning him, how can a Muslim play the role of Hindu.
A French journalist, Francois Gautier, started this communal debates on social media, as he tweeted, Frenchman tweeted as, ‘Why should Aamir Khan, a Muslim, play in most ancient & sacred of Hindu epics, the Mahabharata? Is BJP Govt of Narendra Modi going to be like the Congress party & just stand by in name of secularism??? Would Muslims allow a Hindu to play life of Mohamed?’
Reacting to the same, writer and lyricist Javed Akhtar gave a fitting reply. He asked the journalist if he is getting paid from PR agencies to spread negativity against the most ambitious project of India “Mahabharata” planned by Mr Mukesh Ambani and Aamir Khan.
But Francois didn’t stop there and he took a jibe at Javed’s personal life saying that the writer and his second wife speaks for Hindu women while they secretly believe Islam is only true religion.
Irritated with the unethical tweets of this so-called journalist, Javed this time showed him his place with just a single tweet. He tweeted, ‘You scoundrel, have you not seen Peter Brooks production of this great epic Mahabharata in France. I would like to know which foreign agency is paying you to spread this kind of perverse and poisonous thoughts in our country’.
Not just Javed, many Bollywood celebrities have come to rescue of Aamir and also Javed Akthar.
