Is MNIK worth the media coverage its getting?

Nothing against Shahrukh Khan or Karan Johar here. But watching every news channel and newspaper give My Name Is Khan national importance, is hard to digest. Even now with the film having released across all multiplexes in India, the topic of discussion and debate continues to be the film.

Surely there are bigger problems in the country, that deserve more coverage and importance, don’t you think?

Also would other actors get the same backing from the media, the government and not to mention the industry, as MNIK has?

1) When Aamir Khan’s Fanna was banned in Gujarat, not many stood up for the actor, least the media. The producers (Yashraj) lost a lot of money.

2) Hrithik Roshan’s last film Jodha Akbar too was banned in Rajasthan, later in Madhya Pradesh and eventually in UP. Where was the government, the media? Why wasn’t the same security and assurance provided to the film and its makers? The film lost 6 – 8 crores, no less.

All we are trying to say here is, irrespective of how big / small the film is, irrespective of who the lead star is, every film that is passed by the censor board should witness a smooth release all over.

  • even if two scenes were to be copied from any source it still is a copy.. and i dont likes this….after interval the entire film takes up on forrest gump as his mission ..that is why it flopped

  • Well, to my credit, I have some sort of plgaue. I did turn to the CG and say, what are you doing Tuesday evening? nothing? good! (I still have the plgaue and will have to put it off, so I watched BSG to make up for it, but that didn’t help, so I’ll have to figure something else out).I’ll add Main Yahaan Hoon to the list. Thanks for the suggestions (and I am feeling particularly proud that this is one movie title I actually understand)!
