I would rather like to stay in a remote village somewhere in central India, than going to Mumbai.
Its so disturbing to see the moment you come back from the office and switch on your TV , you see a bunch of nerds who call themselves as "the sons of Maharashtra" mercilessly beating innocent people coming from other states like UP and Bihar .
And man , what an irony !!!! we call ourselves as the world's biggest democracy, a social and secular country. Come on guys, after movies and inspirations and bla bla bla on Gandhigiri and movies based on Gandhigiri (produced and made in THEIR MUMBAI , you chose a path to drive people away from your state which would have put even Gandhiji to shame .Ha !!even the britishers were not driven in such a way . For a fellow who runs a roadside bundi , his bundi is the only source to feed himself and his family .How can a handful of these anti social elements throw their bundi off and slap him....
On one hand these sons on Maharshatra give n number of awards to Mr. Bachhan and today they had no hesitation to pelt bottles and stones on his bungalow.That one stone did not hit the window pane of his bunglow but thrashed and rocked the entire shelf of awards that Mr. Bachhan received from Mumbai. I always thought that mumbai is the most so called 'advanced city' of India - a broad minded city . How wrong I was !!!Its the most narrow minded city with people living in stone age even today.
Even if its a political battle , why should a common man suffer . Whats rights do these guys have to pull students from UP and bihar with their hair , outside , barring them from writing exams.We live in a society that thrives on a give and take relationship . If people from other states are coming to Mumbai , then many Mumbaikers ( or maharashtrians) are also coming to UP and Bihar . People from film fraternity come to these states to shoot their films . The audiences love these films and adore the film stars without thinking whether the film star is from Mumbai or Jhumri Talaiya or Las Vegas. Even today people dance on Madhuri Dixit's numbers and are crazy about her films . Sachin is an idol for all the budding cricketers in UP and people stop their work when he comes to bat .He doesnt rule the hearts of people only in UP and Bihar but all over the country . So WHY THIS BIAS ???Guess they should stop supporting anyone from the "COSMOPOLITAN" Mumbai now and give a Tit for Tat .
I feel like writing a lot but fear the keys might pop out of the keyboard.Sorry to say this , but I would definitely not like to visit Mumbai again and I would not be shocked now to see the story twisting the other way round .And if its a political gimmick then it has gone too far. Neednt say I guess !!!!
