1. First separate it from public protest . How general public treat Amir is not relevant here when we speak about these groups. Do general public have any issue about the movie , popularity of movie reflect no. It is by organised communal groups carried out by groups like VHP , bajrang dal etc.
If we are speaking about them then yes for them
content of movie is contentious just like any other movie , so also
out of the many reason one is the identity of Amir. Just few instances how they target him .
1. A complaint will go soon to initiate action under PMLA on Aamir Khan
& co for laundering terrorist finance. I hope MoF does not block it.
Do any other movie they vendalised earlier tagged as terrorist funded ? Do any other movie they target say paresh rawal etc by linking ISI etc.
2. Bajrang Dal and Vishwa Hindu Parishad activists intruded into Shree
Talkies in Uttar Pradesh on Sunday evening and disrupted the screening
of the film.
They even advised Aamir to go to Pakistan.

Now do anyone advising any other actor associated in movie , or producer - director to go to pakistan . We may do hawa mai baat say nothing like this happen , but ground level reality is different.
We will get nth number of instances like this
3. Amir himself forced to give clarification as question raised on him.
While the right wing leaders lashed out at Aamir insinuating
that he "insulted" Hindu religion because he was a Muslim, the actor has
said, "We respect all religions. All my Hindu friends have seen the
film and they have not felt the same".
"Even Raju (Hirani) is Hindu, so is Vinod (Chopra) and so is Abhijat
(Joshi). In fact 99 per cent of the crew was Hindu. No one would have
done such a thing," the actor said, referring to the director, producer
and the scriptwriter of the film.
Now if we want to accept the reality or bury head in the sand depends on us .
