Aamir Khan’s Open Letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi

An open letter signed by Aamir Khan was sent to the Prime Minister of India Shri Narendra Modi.

There are moments in history that become turning points. In our view, 2015 will be such a moment. It is the most important year for global decision-making since the start of the new millennium. We believe it’s just possible that we could end 2015 with a new global compact – an agreed pathway to a better, safer future for people and planet that will inspire all the citizens of the world. We can choose the path of sustainable development. Or we might not – and regret it for generations to come. Which side of history will you be on?

There are millions of voices you can’t afford to ignore – the voices of the people you represent. They are voices of all ages from every corner of the planet – the voice of a young girl currently deprived an education… of a pregnant mother deprived healthcare… of young people deprived decent work… of a family from a minority group fearful of discrimination from corrupt officials… of farmers forced to migrate to cities as climate refugees… and of billions of other people. Their voices will roar ever louder against the inequality and injustice that keep people poor. They – and all who stand with them – are calling on you to come up with a grand new global contract for our one human family – and then deliver on it together. The great news is that in 2015 you have a historic chance to do just that.

Two critical United Nations summits will take place this year. The first in September, where the world must agree new goals to eradicate extreme poverty, tackle inequality and ensure a more sustainable planet. The second is the climate summit in December where we must ensure the wellbeing of people today doesn’t come at the expense of our children’s futures.

Together with critical discussions on financing, these opportunities are the biggest of our lifetime. We know from past efforts against AIDS, malaria, preventable diseases and saving the ozone layer that when we come together, so much can be achieved. Yet, with just months to go before these summits, few leaders are playing the leadership roles we need. We see climate progress but not yet of the scale that is needed, and a set of goals that are hugely ambitious but will be meaningless without brave financing and implementation agreements led from the very top.

If this does not change, we fear you and your fellow leaders could be sleep-walking the world towards one of the greatest failures of recent history. It’s not too late to rise to the occasion. We’re asking you to help lead that change.

Let’s be clear: the actions we take in 2015 will decide which way the world turns for decades to come. Please take the right path.

  • @indicine do you have a problem with me ? I posted a comment on the ‘I bo collections’ article and it never got posted, it had absolutely nothing offensive in it.
    you approve comments of people who use abusives, degrade actors, do name-calling, nipun kumari uses the ‘F’ word for and gets away with it .. Seriously ?

  • For Attention Off New Visitors To Indicine… Please be warned that all is not what it seems here- recent yrs we have witnessed the rise of 300 no sorry its the rise of chameleonism… What is chameleonism you may be thinking- well its an ancient treacherous tactic used by Saruman during the Middle Ages during the battles with Middle Earth Kingdoms containing Bakrapur, Badlapur, Paglapur, Jaaduland and it was to form a super state with one kingdom one king of Manipulationpur…! Unfortunately Saruman was defeated by the courageous Gandalf, Robin Hood Pandey, Navin n his council of Wise Old Uncles sorry Men ie Hrithik, Sky, Tiger, Sachin11, NVS and Sid…!

    Anyway chameleonismwas was handed down the generations through the thullu which contained nothing but an old book on treachery which was adopted by Rasputin n later it fell into more evil hands of some wrong number giving babuji from a small village in Bhojpur- kShitij SriVastevar…! This village idiot has now been causing havoc on an international platform by giving out wrong numbers to Top Bollywood studios like the head of Filmkraft Super Toy Stores- Rakesh Roshan…! The lungi wearing, chain smoking, jaadoo hugging, thullu carrier kShitij made Rakesh ji look like a right clown during Diwali 2013 by making him believe 244cr Gross was 244cr Net…!

    Beware of disciples of this thullu carrier who are very active on twitter sorry Indicine conjuring up new ways to manipulate the facts, twist the truth, disguise their own stars epic shivering / failings by treacherously carrying out fanwars…!
    How to spot a chaneleon… Well heres some I have come across so take everything they say with a punch of salt…!

    Jilu, NKP, Taylor Swift, Anupama Chopra fanboy- these belong to Nipun Kumar (for those of you with a twitter account look him up as it will bring a smile to your face- hes a freakish looking boy awaiting gender reassignment surgery as he looks more like Anupama Chopra than his fav critiK Rajeev Masand…)
    Mahesh Bhatt, Sir Emraan Hashmi, Engineering genius, Bengali Idiot- all these n many more belong to Some Buddha Mukherjee- google him n his pic will be of him all ALONE in Bengal celebrating Tevars BoxOffice success…!
    Navin Reloaded, baby navin, chameleon master and many many more all beling to the Chameleon Babuji kShitij Stivastevar- this old timer was a disciple of Rasputin n has been there during many revolutions no doubt causing most of the mischief himself- hes one you should definitely watch out for…!

    Be safe guys- if you see any of these chameleons then dont call police but call me and I will bash them nonstop until the disease is drained out from them in the most painful way imaginable to mankind…!

  • @troll this country doesn’t work on religious criteria’s my friend .. “Khans” have been ever ruling Bollywood.
    people watch actors not for their religion, they watch them for their work, be it a ‘Khan’, ‘Kumar’ or a ‘Roshan’ .. people like you need to STFU !! your’l are the one’s who spread dis-harmony.

  • Salman Khan open letter to his loyal fans.

    First of all Thank you very much. I wouldn’t be here with out your support and I know how many of you and your families love to watch my movies but the reason I’m writing to you is about Tevar.

    Guys how could you miss a movie that tributes me?? if you are a true fan of me, you shouldn’t boycotted the movie.I have been little bit disappointed by your decision.

    Main toh Superman is the best song ever I have heard, thanks Boney, Sanjay and my Boy Arjun Kapoor, who was the reason behind that song.

    I have watched Tevar… actually I haven’t seen the whole movie as it was a torture but guys that song is definitely the best thing of the movie.

    If half of my loyal fans would go to the theater then Tevar’s collection wouldn’t be the same as it is now.

    Anyway, we are humans and sometimes we make bad choices our live but please next time try to give little support for my boy Arjun Kapoor.

    Thank you.

    Love you All.

  • In the above article i am not against MODI but past was same as i wrote even somewhere today also happens the same. Most of the political party are full of those.

  • @Navina Tandon::Kepp piling up the shit but it won’t change the fact that you are a lonely drunkard buddha uncle who never gained jawani..so he keeps posting childish comments as he don’t know what it is like to be a grown Up..People like this buddha uncle should be boiled with their own pudding, and buried with a stake of holly through their heart.
    FYI:I have not used any fake ID against you,If you have the dare ask indicine!
    baby navin,navin reloaded are all your fake IDs to get cheap popularity.
    Also you were caught using Trust Me 2 yesterday.
    Such a dumbo uncle!!

  • Good one. but sadly it’s not going to make any difference to any of the politicians… not this letter and any other with more stronger words…

  • @thullu carrier

    Trust me and trust me 2 are not me and you old man I dont need to hide behind an ID to bash you n nipun or some buddha… I do it very publicly- Irrespective of what indicine say I know you are the Chameleon master n you certainly more discreet about it than your two imbecile disciples. You 3 idiots/ chameleons deserve everything you get and that is a lifetime of being ALONE…. Such immaturity from the other two is expected but you were meant to be the wise old rasputin- what happened old timer— you felt lonely so you started making advances towards megha aunty ji this you lost control over some buddha who went youngistan mad and nipun went lootera crazy… Get a grip old man- your jawani went when you lost your mojo during partition n megha aunty certainly has high standards so without a mojo you got no chance in pleasing her. Get nipun n bengali idiot under control on twitter- oh yeah how sad you go to twitter to discuss the days events on Indicine n you have the cheek to call others sad- 4 hr long conversations about which chameleon amongst your group created a new chameleon ID- now thats tragic but so true that it hurts…!

  • @Navina Tandon: There was no such IDs like Anupama Chopra fanboy on indicine. As for nkp and Jilu, they are my “old” ids. I never used those ids after using My Nipun Id. Taylor Swift is the id that I have used, okay! And Taylor Swift wasn’t a troll id. It was only a supportive id for me. I didn’t do anything bad through it!
    And, stop checking the ids of me and babaji on twitter like a coward. If you have guts, come and meet wid us on twitter u old uncle. Sambuddha is not on twitter.

  • Most of them here didn’t understand what Aamir is saying.

    India is a developing country and we need funds. We fought polio with funds from world bank.

    We need more to fight climate changes, as there are places for eg., in Maharashtra where every day 2-3 farmers do suicide.

    We need funds to take up these tasks to counter climate changes quickly.

    With new government there is new hope and we need to take this positive move forward. We need to move forward by removing poverty and countering climate change.

    We do have our own budget, but with the population and the country being not a smaller nation in size, the budget is just a miniscule, and hence funds from other sources are need of the hour.

    All nations should work to improve the living of their population and not fight on petty issues like religion, as religion will not give us food, but good working conditions and new age jobs and technology will take us forward.

  • @indicine, Navin has posted a sexually offensive comment about @babaji and @Megha. He is insulting a girl. Such kind of comments should be banned.

    @Navin Uncleji, You bloody loser, you cann’t even digest your foods without tagging names of me,Kshitij and Sambuddha in your comments.
    You are a big Loser moving around this site with our shitty childish posts. Yeah,babaji is right. This Buddha Navin has become too old that he is missing his childhood so much and consistantly posting childish comments all the time. People like This old Buddha should spend their time on taking rest instead of opening comment sections of indicine all over a day.

  • Well..how many of you praising him were not aware of the issues he raised? I should get more likes and comments because I am about to raise the points that he missed..and of course some of them for Mr. Khan too.

    1.What do you people think about the Islamic terrorism which has brought the world on the brink of WW3?
    2.In the Indian society, it is the Muslims who are most deprived of education and are under great impression of Islamic Extremist as we can see the rising number of Muslim youth caught by the security agencies.
    3. What about those people including you making fun of Hinduism (some true facts but that does not give you right to make fun of that) while we witness massacre in Paris for almost similar cause?
    4. Dont you think Mr. Khan that you should too spent some time in discovering Islam and come out with sequel of PK focusing more on Islamic issues. It will surely Impact the 25 crore of Muslims in nation after all you are a legend. people will listen you.
    5.This is for you Mr. Khan Of course issues raised by you IN Satyamev Jayate are 100% correct but I still wonder if that was really for the noble cause? I mean charging 1.25 cr/episode and crying before the camera was the cheapest publicity Stunt. LOL charging money to cry before the camera?

    Well.. i am not used to rght so much..will come back again and write more if required. and I know..there will be abuses for me now..calling me RSS agent, hindu extremist, Islamic hater ..blah blah..go on…i give you _l_

    If i include hny then loyal srk fan say it get 4 star from our valuable INDICINE.So i not include and i’m not interesting so called king movie.

  • khan shahab, you only play the role of actor in movies.but do n,t try to be a politician,first of all join the party then ask such type of questions and i have seen you doing the politic in narmada matters. don,t warry aamir,there are lots of scientists, economicists and other wise people in india. be continue in making a communalism movies likes PK2,3,4,5…ETC

  • @nipun::: leave him,he’s not worthy of seeking anyone’s attention.He tries so throughout the day posting off topic,inane comments but eventually fails.He’s actually Rakhi sawant of indicine…Whats ur thought,Rakhi uncle would suit him!!

  • @vikas Singh and others.
    Whom you are blaming too, the guy who has appointed a brand ambassador by UNICEF for clean Indian even before Modi come in national picture.What do you guys knows about Aamir.He was a grand children of Maulana Abul Kalam Azad who was freedom fighter as well as Minister in first ever government cabinet.
    Some people who are questioning for Aamir for being a anti Hindu though he wasn’t but as they think.Tell me why Raju Hirani and VVC chosen Aamir for playing pk they can choose any actor for this role as Aamir is not a producer just an actor in this film.What made non Muslim like Raju,vvc,abhijat,anushka,Sanjay duty and other Hindu people to agree for making this film.Aamir didn’t forced anybody or its not his idea too.
    Talking About questioning Islam and their issues,We all know what is the curse doing by Muslims in the name of religion and that is terririsom.Now let’s see did Aamir came against terririsom or not.
    In a movie in which Aamir was a Acp playing a Hindu Character in conversion with Mukesh Rishi who played a Muslim character so when Mukesh Rishi said that in this country being a poor Muslim is a crime itself showing His frustration to Aamir,Aamir clearly said to him that For the sake of my country I don’t need any Salim.Or in final conversation with Nasser Sir he said that you kind of people don’t belong to any religion and you guys are insulting Islam.
    Now taking other example Same year a movie released named 1947 earth based on partition in which Aamir portrayed his first grey shade role,he was the muslim who in climax throw a Hindu girl which he loved to Muslim in riots after partition.There he showed again an anti side of Muslims.
    Later in RDB he was playing a panjabi character DJ and Kunaal Kapoor who was Muslim they showed his family who don’t liked his friendship with opposite religion people.In Fanna he played a Muslim guy who is a terrorist and that movie showed again a evil side if blind understanding of religion.
    Now than after these kind of films when he taking dig on his religious wrong deed than he can also raise point on another religion too.In the whole movie Aamir used only Bhagwan or god word even when he went to mosque he asked is there any Bhagwan house nearby.Because of they are making a film for people of the nation where 83% people are belong to Hindu religion how can they throw whole movie similar to other religion.He also taken 2-3 example if Muslims as like terrorist attack when Sanjay futt died,he said to Tapaswi aaj kaisi ne apne khuda ki raksha ki Aur mera dost chala gaya or the fatwa kind of example where girls not allowed to go to school.Aur a Muslim man had 3 wives.
    For SMJ be us charging 3cr per episode but he has his production team who Invest their time and money and for this cause he don’t charged from public he is taking his fees for the show and time he given to.And who know what Aamir doing of that money in real life.For this show Aamir stopped doing TV commercial at the supreme peak of his career if he start to do any ads than who know he can minted huge money just like srk,salman does with those.But if he stopped other way for earning than he also need funds for his other works specially a show like SMJ.
    Aamur us a Muslim so he can’t make a anti Islam film if I agree this point than why not a single Hindu superstar came in light or made a film on them in Bollywood.Why Akki in OMG only pointed out on Hindu while keep mum on other religion.There were hardly any strong lines against those from paresh rawal while he said Shiv Ling a Stone,served wine in name of Gangajal or saying Geeta is just not more than waste for him in pure word is Kachra.
    Think before write and saying guys.Don’t pretend to be saint neither you are,Nor me and not any in Bollywood.
    Aamir-Raju hirani don’t need advise of you guys that what to make,his to make until they failed and the way pk performed exceptionally well in its run shows that people loved the movie and accepted that.Majority speaks in India.

  • Saddest thing I ever saw on twitter is kshitij n nipun with another joker talking about events on indicine that day…. Tragic it was- praise for me, contempt for some buddha n intrigue about a new ID created by another chameleon… It was sad to think that a group of chameleons who should have been out painting the town red chasing young girls or boys in their case were infact all ALONE in their rooms talking about a new chameleon ID on indicine…. Now thats real maturity from self proclaiming sensible fans….

    What a joke…

  • @anshuman I don’t know if you are a srk or Salman fan or any other actor fan but I want to know what made to you call Aamir a traitor of Pakistan.
    If you a Salman Fan read this Salman statement against mumbai attack ““It was the elite that were targeted this time. Five star hotels and all. So they panicked. Then they got up and spoke about it. My question is why not before. Attacks have happened in trains and small towns too, but no one talked about it so much,” the 44-year-old actor had said during an interview to Express 24/7 channel.”Everybody took this up because the Taj and Oberoi hotels were involved. The attacks happened because our security failed.””The attacks happened because our security failed. Everybody knows that the Pakistan government was not behind it and it was a terrorist attack,”.
    Above statement was given to pak media by him.Tell me why he said this despite knowing that even Pakistan govt and army involved in terrorism. for which he appolised openely too and no need to ask criminal charge against him.
    Now if you are a srk fan or any other who thinks Aamir is Pakistani lover.
    Srk had said he feel insecure in India.Seriously.
    Srk said why to ban pak cricketer in IPL after Mumbai attack.May I know why to bother for pak players when their made terrorist killing India.
    Srk made some patriotic film but did he ever made any film against terrisom soecialy against Pak.I don’t reemeber.He even step ahead made two ind-pak loved films veer zaara in which for a pak girl he left Indian army,MHN where the villain is a Hindu Suniel Shetty who create a gang who kills people.
    Now tell me why Aamir pointing out where I don’t remember a single statement of him in public forum in support to Pakistan’s wrong deed,even in pk they don’t said every Pakistani is innocence but they tried to convey not many involved in terrisom so they are not culprit for referring shushant character.
    The same thing we seen in ETT and Veer Zaara but hardly any questioned that time.
    Though nothing against Salman-SRK just showing some facts in favour of my words.

  • Its funny to see so many retarded people supporting aamir khan who is a traitor to this country. advising modi, who does aamir think he is. All knowing?. and look at all modi haters, shows the standard of people commenting over here.

  • Attempted cleverly to show as though he stood above the rest in the moral high ground to preach others. Why not he take it upon him to cleanse the bollywood films of obscenity and vulgarity and play his role to save the society? Aamir khan – The Orginal Fake!
