BeautifulGame Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 CHENNAI: Actor Kamal Haasan has alleged that right wing Hindus have started employing terrorism to propagate their communal agenda. In his column in a Tamil magazine that hit stands on Thursday, the 62-year-old actor said the right-wingers could no longer say "show me a Hindu terrorist if you can." Terrorism has spread into their fold also, he said. "Earlier, the right-wing Hindus employed debates, and not force, against people of other religions. Having realised that their attempts are failing, they have started using violence," he wrote. "This is not a victory or a sign of progress. If we start believing that force will prevail and not truth, then we will all turn into violent beasts," he wrote. In his column, Kamal was replying to a question posed by Kerala chief minister Pinarayi Vijayan who had sought the actor's opinion on "the attempt by Hindutva forces to infiltrate into Tamil Nadu." Kamal wrote: "Only change is permanent. No matter how many forces push it back, Tamil Nadu will once again prevail as the forerunner in social reforms. Kerala is standing as an example today. Congrats for that." https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/chennai/saffron-terrorism-kamal-haasan-says-right-wing-hindus-have-started-employing-terrorism/articleshow/61453672.cms?from=mdr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asterix Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 Just Asking': Prakash Raj After Kamal Haasan Remarks On 'Hindu Terror'Chennai: Noted South Indian actor Prakash Raj, who risked the wrath of right-wing social media users last month with his comments over the murder of journalist Gauri Lankesh, has commissioned a sequel.Seemingly voicing support for Tamil mega-star Kamal Haasan who provoked a similar confrontation yesterday saying that terrorism has infected right-wing groups, Mr Raj said, "If instilling fear in the name of religion... culture... morality is not terrorizing... then what is it. Just asking."In a Twitter post titled "To whomsoever it may concern", 52-year-old Prakash Raj added: "If abusing and manhandling young couples on the streets of my country in the name of morality is not terrorising... If taking law into hands and lynching people on slightest doubt of cow slaughter is not terrorising... If trolling with abuse, threat... to silence even a slightest voice of dissent is not terrorising... Then what is terrorizing... Just asking."https://www.ndtv.com/india-news/if-lynching-not-terrorising-what-is-prakash-raj-backs-kamal-haasan-1770816 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeautifulGame Posted November 4, 2017 Author Share Posted November 4, 2017 The great irony about Kamal saying this is it was Muslim Mullahs who tried to block his Movie Vishwaroopam and he won't a word to criticize them . Read the whole article in Tamil.It was nothing but preachy criticizing the right wing (conveniently forgetting Most Muslims are more right wing than Hindus) . Clearly was trying to stay in the limelight till he launches his political party. G_B_, maniac, Laaloo and 2 others 1 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maniac Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 (edited) Kamal Hasan is a commie cunt who had no problem taking crores in remuneration and enjoying the pleasures that come along with an obviously capitalist film industry. So there you go a hypocrite which has already made him ready for politics. He is following the traditional path of most veteran South Indian heroes who start getting the political bug once the roles keep drying up and they still have some fame left.

Muloghonto Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 he is right. Biggest problem i have with Hinduvta is they have trashed 2000 year old tradition of hinduism being non-denominational, non-centralized and pan-theistic, with a denominational, dogmatic and linear version, which is just 'copy-cat of Islam'. sarcastic, Gollum, cowboysfan and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gollum Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 (edited) He is factually right in the sense that Hindutva terror does exist. It isn't on a global scale and not as violent as Islamic terrorism or left wing terrorism. I think he wrote this article because Vishwaroopam 2 is releasing soon and he wants to do the balancing act. Just like last time Muslim fanatics will surely try to block his movie, he can then probably pacify the nutjobs by saying that he condemns even Hindu right wing elements and that he isn't anti Islam yada yada. He is learning the art of politics that's for sure. I don't think Kamal belongs to the loony left category otherwise he wouldn't have taken Hey Ram (must watch movie) the way he did. He has ofc done movies on the other end of the spectrum like Anbe Sivam which is orgie for the communists. I just think he is a very independent free minded artiste who also appears to outspoken. If he is leftist, let him be. He hasn't done anything seditious like say a Mahesh Bhatt or a Sanjay Dutt. Had Kamal said something along the lines of Hindutva terror being more dangerous than radical Islamic terror ( a la Rahul gandhi) or RSS=ISIS (Ghulam Nabi Azad, Irfan Habib) etc then he should have been thrashed to bits because that is not only factually incorrect but a very dangerous line of thinking aiming to downplay the scourge of Islamic terror, worst form of vote bank politics !!!! Earlier today a Hindu Mahasabha leader made news by asking his followers to shoot Kamal dead, reinforcing Kamal's p.o.v. There is a strong undercurrent of Hindutva extremism in our society and we should be worried. If the weed is allowed to grow wild, it may be too late to rectify. Though it will never be as extreme as Islamic fundamentalism, we should hold ourselves to higher standards. We should look at Norway, Austria, NZ as our benchmark and not failed/pseudo failed states like Pakistan, Bangladesh, etc. Edited November 4, 2017 by Gollum The Dark Horse, bihutoli, Book_Worm and 3 others 1 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gollum Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 Apart from the Visharoopam 2 release angle we must remember that Kamal is a Brahmin. Brahmins in TN are a tiny minority and generally the Dravidian structure there is anti Brahmin. So may be he wanted to appease Christians, Muslims, hardcore Dravidians and Dalits/other lower castes by bashing Hindutva elements. Hindutva elements have never been able to make a headway in TN, Tamilians blame NDA for anything and everything under the sun. So probably Kamal Haasan though it would be ok to join the bandwagon, anything even associated with BJP in that state is sure to face doom in elections. Even Amma had to put Kanchi Shankaracharya in jail to rise above her Brahmin caste. She sent bricks to Ayodhya during the Ram Janmabhoomi movement, only party apart from SS and BJP to do so. But people don't talk about that do they? No minority or Dravidian raises this sensitive issue about JJ because her one act of putting the mutt leader behind bars overshadowed everything else, even her anti conversion bill of the late 90s.

BJP will never win in TN. That is a fact. All votings are based on caste. Anti-Brahmin sentiment is one they have been exploiting for decades even though Brahmins make up about only 1.5% of the total population. Also BJP representatives in TN are seriously dumb.
