Young India defends PK, so does Bollywood
1 Jan 2015 9:53 PM GMT
Young India is giving the thumbs up to Aamir Khan-starrer PK and asking why Hindu groups are denouncing a movie which they feel no way runs down Hindu religion.
Bollywood and theatre owners are equally upset over the protests which have erupted against the hugely successful Hindi film which takes a hard-hitting swipe at organised religion and godmen. Arya Samaj leader Swami Agnivesh is in fact demanding tax free exemption to the movie, which has become one of the biggest hits from Bollywood and has grossed Rs.200 crore within a fortnight in India. PK, which released Dec 19, presents Aamir as an alien who is fascinated by what he sees in India.
It also stars Anushka Sharma, Sanjay Dutt, Boman Irani and Sushant Singh Rajput.
