DomainK Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 Mumbai on informal riot alert. Shops and offices are closing down fast, people are rushing home. Poor government employees and school children will have to return late in the evening.
don_corleone840 Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 One less extremist, moreover one less terrorist to worry about. I pray for the innocent people, especially Muslims, who died at the hands of BT and his extremist ideology. Now they can rest in peace.
Texy Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 Why the riot alert? He died of natural causes not terrorist attack....his time is gone, let's move on
EnterTheVoid Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 Good riddance, hope his sons and nephews follow suit.
DomainK Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 Why the riot alert? He died of natural causes not terrorist attack....his time is gone' date=' let's move on[/quote'] Tell that to the mob that is bent on demonstrating grief through burning vehicles, killing innocent people and looting shops. Even day before yesterday, a small group of his fans went around asking shops to shut down in grief, till the police arrested them. And even MGR and Rajkumar died of old age, that did not stop his followers from rioting in grief. And this is political. There are powerful people who might even want a riot on this occasion.

Put all those fkers in jail. Ek din jail mein danda parega to sab mardaangi bahaar nikaal ke ayegi phoot phoot ke. Btw, why is the film fraternity there to shower their condolence...is this the case of I scratch your back and you scratch mine?
rageaddict Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 Bal Thackeray's body to be kept at Shivaji park from 7am for his followers to pay last respect . Half a Million people expected to turn up .
ravishingravi Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 End of an era. End of shiv sena. Possibly rise of Raj Thackeray
ravishingravi Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 Rare footage of The great Louis Malle ' s documentary on India , covering balasaheb during the peak of his movement Z_VYQwShcOc

Btw' date=' [b']why is the film fraternity there to shower their condolence...is this the case of I scratch your back and you scratch mine? Well, I don't blame them. Pre 1998, when the underworld was very strong in Mumbai and the police was no big help, Bal Thackray was their final court of appeal. There was a time when, if a underworld don invited film stars to private parties, they had no option but say yes. And if they were asked to pay millions in security money, they did. And if they were asked to do things they did not want to do (like casting a certain woman in a film), they had to do it. Going to the police was not a good option then. At that time, when they needed a respite, Thackray was their only option, only protection. In a way, he ran a parallel government and did a better job of it than the elected government. So, yes, there is good reason for some of the film actors to grief right now.

Powerful orator in Marathi and very good cartoonist in his own right.
