Free Speech?

Another celebrity is the latest victim of India’s true culture.

One that binds us and unites us. One that we swear by and kill for. 

Personal taste. Pet Peeves. Judgement.

Its a basic human trait, to be fair. No part of the world, however unexplored, is untouched by it.

Like a villain from some comic book, that is the only water which will sustain this national personality. 

Drink on, India / Bharat / Hindustan. Raise that cup high and drink it with pride.
