When we wear footwear, it gives full protection to our feet as well as the entire body from encountering objects which may hurt us like Lord Vishnu who protects his people from various problems that come in our way. Dhoni just gave a pose to an advertisement in a business magazine as Lord Vishnu holding several items including a shoe in his hand. Shoe is not a worst thing, it is the protector of human being. Then, why Hindu people think that he is denigrating their favorite god Vishnu.
Would Christians feel it is ok if Jesus Christ was depicted the same way in an ad with a shoe in his hand ? or a Jain or a Buddhist feels there is nothing wrong if an advertisement is made with their respective gods with shoes in hands ? It is all a matter of belief that needs to be respected ..

Undoubtedly, money plays a significant role everywhere. Money makes the mare go. Also possible, there could be valid reasons for early release of the actor. The role of money is obvious. There is nothing to discuss about this. So i agree that the topic be locked.

In fact Salman Khan's case is hardly communal he having a Hindu mother etc...I was referring to the kind of clout his father seems to have with people who matter and the status he has earned as an actor which probably puts him in a super special category ! Sanjay Dutt at least got to serve a prison sentence even if it was cut short, again for the same reason..

We Indians are just following western culture and in modern days even our toilets are designed in western way and we are forgetting our own traditional way. Here is a link which tells the benefits of traditional way:

Lot of things happened between 1992 and now. Now, it' clear that Pakistan is also has become a victim of Terrorism like India. In the interest of both the countries, both the leaders should work together. Now Modi made it clear, Unless Nawaz Sharif shows action against Pathankot terrorists, there will not be any further talks.

I agree. I suggest, if possible for all of us to follow the odd even formula, one day Western and one day Indian toilet system to double advantages of boht and cancel out the disadvantages.

It's the general human tendency. We look down our own virtues and indulge in self pity.

Just as we do not expect to see from Pakistan point of view they also can not be expected to see from our point of view. I met a Pakistani in USA in 1992 who told me stories of Indian involvement in various incidents inside their country. Right or wrong, difficult to say.

It's essential to shift stances from time to time as the new convincing evidences pour in to the forums. But neither you nor Usha conveniently forgotten that I maintained my View on Western type of toilets that I did not face any health problems in using Western type of toilets.

Hate India and humiliate India is the mission of a lot many Pakistanis esp the army and many politicians. Giving refuge to likes of Dawood and anti India terror groups is part of strategy to fulfill this mission.

Pl let us not bring communal comments in every thing. Bail in rape cases is very rare these days irrespective of which religion alleged rapist belongs to. Salman Khan has followed the legal process as has Sanjay Dutt.

Earning money through endorsements is not a sin. Dhoni has done such endorsements many times earlier too. But none of those endorsements related to religion . This time it's different. Dhoni has gone too far. He has hurt the sentiments of Hindus. He is also a Hindu. But big money made him blind. It's not all, he has not responded to the court summons, contributing to court contempt. The judges took this very seriously and issued Non Bailable Warrants. He deserves this.

True, people have wake up now. This is just a start, we have to go through a long way to struggle for equal laws in our country.
Seeing Many instances of wrong verdicts by the courts and scores of shady deals between the rich, influential people with the Judges made the people open their eyes. Now many people are questioning the court verdicts . It's a good thing.

Now it is the time when people like Dhoni should be punished, so that a message between the public can be sent that anyone who is doing wrong will be punished whether he is a celebrity or a common man.
