Salman Khan: 'Censor board has passed
it too naaa. Sure. 100% gonna see it. Dekho yaar its a movie n thr r
only 2 kinds of movies good or bad. hit n flop N only people who decide r
1s who buy tickets. Hope each n every fan of his supports him like I am
doing n want all my fan to fully support him. Bhool gaye kya ek doojeh
ke liyeh. Then go stand out side the cinema hall n insist on seing the
film, its a movie dude , entertainment, wat law n order problem on a
movie? Go thr insist that u wanna c it , thr is a supreme court judgment
after the film is censored no body can stop it. Ek toh the industry
does not get any support frm any 1 but the fans bus tax pe tax. Now they
stopping the releases of our movies. Wah .'
Abhishek Bachchan:
'Ok, I'm confused. So are we in the film industry even meant to bother
getting our films censored? Or work according to their guidelines?
Offended by a film or its contents? simple solution...don't buy the
ticket to see the film? Let the audience decide for themselves.'
Farhan Akhtar:
'Apart from harassing the film maker, isn't the ban of #Vishwaroopam
ridiculing the CBFC? Should their authority not be protected? And if
their decision cannot be upheld, why subject film makers to this
review?'
Soha Ali Khan: 'If we keep banning and censoring
how can we hope to mature as citizens? We need to speak without fear and
we need to listen without fear. Laws too easily curtail freedom of
speech, groups are too easily 'hurt' and file complaints and a
sensationalist media fans the fire.'
Anupam Kher: 'As a
former Censor Board Chief I strongly CONDEMN Banning of Kamal Hassan's
#Vishwaroopam. We as People of India are Shamelessly SPINELESS. We 'The
People' are responsible for our SORRY State. We are used to Slavery
& taking nonsense from all. Mughals, Britishers & now our own.
Kamal Hassan travelled with me to LA and kept talking passionately about
exciting times in cinema in India. This is what we do to him.'
Karan Johar:
'a zone of shame for a sham of a political scenario...Kamal Haasan
needs not only our support but fraternity proactivity...like NOW!!!'
Arjun Rampal:
'It is just pathetic to make any artist experience what Kamal Haasan is
experiencing right now. What kind of viciousness is this?'
Pooja Bedi:
'I don't get it! Hollywood films can name different terrorist
organisations but Indian films can't? Kamal Haasan's predicament =
absurd politics. Why would people that haven't even SEEN Vishwaroop be
attacking theatres with petrol bombs? Just shows violence is political
& not coz of film. Is jihad not a reality? Aren't muslim terror
outfits not a reality? Don't NEWS CHANNELS cover the ACTUAL
killings/bombings? Why not cinema? If r filmmakers were to make a film
on pakistani schoolgirl Malala who was shot in head by the anti girls
education Taliban would we ban it?'
Anubhav Sinha: 'Our
courts deliver verdicts on a film twice in a day, and the FAST TRACK
court for a nationwide concern is still discussing... When was the last
time releasing a movie created a law and order situation? I know every
time banning one did. #Kamal Haasan'
Shabana Azmi: 'The
purpose of Art is not only to placate and please. It is also to provoke,
stimulate and initiate discussion. TN govt wants 2 protect those who r
'offended' Im offended too when Im prevented from watching a film passed
by CBFC. TN Govt r u listening.'
Riteish Deshmukh: 'Totally unfair-every passing hour the producer bleeds even more.'
Shekhar Kapur:
'Govt's weak response 2 fringe groups on #Vishwaroopam gives thm a
sense of power tht will resonate beynd just cinema n freedom of
expression.'
