guys, gunday is a yashraj banner film, which, if you follow bollywood, creates films that define mindless. it has a rating of 1.2 on IMDB. its films are written by people who completely lack basic GK, forget BD, they would be hard pressed to name the year India got its independence.

disclaimer : went to a multiplex last week with a friend. unfortunately gunday was the only movie showing in the timeframe available to us. we left within an hour, my friend was in facepalm mode for half that time. the number of howlers even in that small time period was mind boggling.

bottomline : films like gunday are not worth your attention, much less protests.

those who actually know anything about anything are well aware of and always acknowledge the bravery and sacrifice of MB.


here's a 3 part article by someone who actually participated in that conflict
