Let us analyze why @iamsrk and #Pathaan should be boycotted.

Let’s start with SRK’s strange obsession with Pakistan.

This is what Shah Rukh said in 2010 after the billion-dollar @IPL decided not to accept Pakistani cricket players.

Shah Rukh has abused his power and hurt the sentiments of millions of his supporters with his anti-Hindu stance.

He had ramped up the anti-Hindu rhetoric with his statement that there is “extreme intolerance” in India.

In 2007, after losing the T20 World Cup final match to India, Shoaib Malik apologised to ‘‘Muslims all over the world’’ for not being able to beat India. That statement made many Indian Muslims cringe.

But what did SRK do? He tried to defend Malik in a subsequent interview.
4/n

Disappointed at the @BCCI’s decision to ban the Pakistani players, @iamsrk said it was humiliating to him as a team owner that no one bid for the Pakistani players despite them being put up for auction.

What does that tell you about his feelings towards Pakistan?
5/n

SRK’s record in hurting Indian sensibilities remains consistent.

John Buchanan, KKR coach, publicly insulted Indian players.

SRK did not reprimand Buchanan for snubbing the three (Ganguly, VVS and Dravid) all-time greats. Because Buchanan had insulted Indians not Pakis.

#BoycottPathaan is not an offhand remark.

With his sweeping statements, Khan insulted the memory of the innocent civilians who were brutally killed and the commandos and policemen who died in their attempt to free Mumbai from the jihadis in November 2008.
7/n

In 2012, Shah Rukh was booked for insulting India’s national flag under sections of Prevention of Insults to National Honour Act, 1971.

I have nothing to say more on this because what to say about a person who doesn’t have any respect towards India.
8/n

In 2003’s Veer-Zaara, Shah Rukh Khan played an Airforce officer who became so desperately mad in love that he sacrificed his duty toward his country, and his responsibilities towards his parents, for a Pakistani girl he had met just two days ago.
9/n

In Main Hoon Naa (2004), an ex-army officer, a Hindu named Raghav (another name of Bhagwan Ram) was presented as the villain, while Pakistanis were shown with great human qualities who wanted peace with India. We all know how reality is entirely different.
10/n

Within two years of the 2008 Mumbai attacks by Islamist Jihadis, Bollywood released My Name is Khan (2010) and Kurbaan (2009). In both these films, Muslims were projected as victims of hate and bigotry, and Islamist terrorism was accorded a soft justification.
11/n

On one hand, they swapped the character of Mir Ranjan Negi to Kabir Khan in Chak De India to create a false narrative of Muslim victimhood and on the other hand, they made Haider propagate the Kashmiri separatist movement.
12/n

Also, you will be surprised to know that SRK wrote an article in which he played the victim card too. 😂
All in all, the sinking ship of Bollywood is now waiting to hit the rocks. Only a complete 180-degree turn from their anti-Hindu propaganda may rescue them, if at all. n/n

When it comes to showing Hindu culture, Deities and saints in a funny manner, it’s a free for all situation.

It’s the lack of some threatening reaction that makes ridiculing Hindu ethos so easy and harmless.

Look how they are making fun of Astrology. #BoycottBollywood 1/4 twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Here is the second video. Astrology has been ridiculed exactly in the same way.

For more than six decades now, Bollywood has done the same thing to the brains of the Indian people what junk food does to the bodies of people worldwide. 2/4
Here is the third one. Same pattern!

This narrative morphed into an industry after Independence. It has a purpose and an end goal.

Through their fictitious stories, Bollywood has done one of the greatest disservices to the Hindu society and its reputation. 3/4

In the name of broad-mindedness Hindus have been made to believe that it is okay to make fun of their gods.

But then, if it is okay to make fun of gods, I will ask you again, why isn't it okay to make fun of a Muslim god or a Christian god?

Thread..1/n
I'm talking about the pattern. I'm talking about the attitude that manifests in Bollywood films.

When it comes to a Hindu god, the very existence of the gods is questioned, and not just questioned, ridiculed, lampooned. 2/n
Remember that a movie is a visual medium. Visuals make a great impact. There is an entire culture under siege, and people don't even realize it. 3/n

The dream run of the Pakistani economy ended soon after Shri @narendramodi became the Prime Minister of India.

It is now a nightmare. Here’s how it panned out. 1/n
Demonetisation:

In November 2016, PM Modi unleashed demonetisation, dismantling the fake Indian currency business that was based out of Pakistan and which financed the Pakistani economy plus its vast terrorism industry. 2/n
In fact, the fake Indian currency business is so critical to the Pakistani economy that the capacity of the currency printing presses in Karachi and Peshawar was more than the installed capacity of the RBI’s Mudran Press in Mysore or the Bank Note Press, Nashik. 3/n

Exposing the close links of Tablighi Jamaat With Pakistan.

Raiwind Tablighi Jamaat Markaz has always been close to the Pakistan which also donated a patch of land for Tablighi Jamaat.

Given the anti-India stance of Jamaat, any association of it with Pak must be monitored. 1/n
After the demise of Haji Abdul Wahab, General Qamar Javed Bajwa, the then Pakistan Chief of Army Staff expressed grief over his passing away. It is a matter of concern. thenews.com.pk/amp/395893-gen… 2/n
Lt. General (retd) Javed Nasir, former Director-General, ISI openly declared himself as one of the most prominent members of Tablighi Jamaat with international fame and reputation. This should worry every sane minded individual. 3/n islamolife.wordpress.com/tablighi-jamaa…تبلیغی-جماعت/

कब तक भागोगे और भाग कर कहाँ जाओगे? सत्य को पहचानिये। दिल्ली या बेंगलुरु की घटनायें कोई आकस्मिक घटनाएँ नहीं हैं। ये तुष्टिकरण नीति के पुरूस्कार हैं। सेक्युलर उद्योग में तैयार जहरीले उत्पाद सभ्यता का गला घोट देने पर उतारू हैं। तुष्टिकरण के इन कुकृत्य का उधार तो चुकाना पड़ेगा। 1/n
स्वतंत्र भारत की नीतियों के विश्लेषण से स्पष्ट हो जाता है कि धर्मनिरपेक्षतावादियों ने किस तरह इस्लामिक चरमपंथियों के जहरीले वृक्ष पोषित किए। गांधी युग में हिंदू-मुस्लिम एकता के नाम पर धर्मनिरपेक्षता की मीठी-मीठी बातें हुईं, लेकिन भारत विभाजन के बाद भी कुछ हाथ नहीं लगा। 2/n
समय के साथ, बीमारी बढ़ती ही गई। कांग्रेस के नेता सदा ही मुस्लिमों को अपने साथ जुटाने के लिए लालायित थे। बाद में कांग्रेस एकाधिकार की कब्रगाह से निकली अन्य पार्टियों ने सेक्युलरिज्म को राजनीतिक अनिवार्यता बना दिया। हर पार्टी ने इसके लिए कांग्रेस को मात देने की कोशिश की। 3/n

An interesting anecdote about George Fernandes Saheb when he was the Defence Minister of India. Once while on an official visit to the Siachen Glacier he asked a senior Army officer about how they managed inspections with snow all around? How do you walk on ice? 1/n
Officer replied, “Sir a proposal was sent to your office around 6 months ago for purchase of ice scooters so that we can manage our operations smoothly.” But the Ministry rejected.

George saheb was surprised and angry. 2/n
He told the officer that he didn’t receive any such proposal. He immediately returned back to Delhi and called Defence Secretary to his office and asked him to find out the person who had rejected that proposal. Later he found that..3/n
