they have no right to use gandhiji the father of nation that way.. its insulting and the ruling party should bring out a law not to allow using any policticians name in movies etc. they should learn to respect the seniors
the way they have shown him in this movie.. how dare they use him that way.. it was so insulting.. some yeterdays kid like sanjay dutt has no right to talk about ghandi.. it should be left to elders to write books.
Sanjay Dutt is playing a character....it is not him talking about Gandhi....You should have a problem with Ben Kingsley's 'Gandhi' as well......."How dare a Britisher play Gandhi" etc etc.....Come on guys, its a movie with a light mood and a serious undertone at the same time.....We all are entitled to our opinions, and so are you.......So peace.......
Nihits, in other threads in comments made by you about the same movie, you have praised the movie highly. In this thread, you say the movie should be banned...??
i think the guys ill.. give him some flowers??.. lol sory that may have been a bad joke. but dude you need to understand that Gandhi was a great human and did wonders for the world.. i do understand how he can be a godly figure.. but you also need to answer this question... wouldnt Gandhi want his teachings to be reborn in the world? at the end of the day mate, rajkumar hirani is saying we shouldnt forget what gandhi did and we must find the gandhi's in ourselves... so dude, isnt that a good thing? something Gandhi would have wanted..? no matter how 'insulting' it may have been..
I understand Gandhiji is sacred. Lage raho only utilises Mahatma's philosophies to address a social situation. I feel this attempt is a way to worship the Mahatma or atleast pays a tribute to his stature.
BTW, the following comments have been made by the SAME guy.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I usually only see hollywood movies and sometimes bollywood ones if someone recommends a lot.. i got a recommendation that this is good and saw it.. and i am glad i did.. it has touched my heart and i think this was as good experience and any hollywood movie i have seen.
Man, Nihits, either you are perenially drunk or you really need help. Get well soon, indeed.
what! that must be someone else with my id! this movie needs to be banned cuz it showed ghandiji in a bad light.. when he first appeared on screen there was absolutely no lighting

You make no sense. You sound like a Taliban who has seen a picture of Mohammed. Gandi is a man, an important man, but still just a man. Turning him into something else is silly idolatry.

I don't understand Nihit? Whom do you call as common people? Are you very sacred in that case? Are you someone rich who can know about Gandhi? So you think that the common man cannot listen to Gandhi's teaching? What do you think about selling Gandhi's autobigraphy for 30 bucks? Is is because common man shouldn't read about him? Or has Gandhi become real cheap? Or his ideals are not to be known or followed? I really don't think you have a point here and you are simply blinded by some faith that Gandhi is for rich and influentials and no one else should know about him.
Guys, as far as we are concerned, the movie potrayed Gandhi and his teachings in a very sacred manner. Follow'em if you want.
Nihit, have a good night sleep and follow your goals. Don't be bothered a thing such as this. Keep flying!
"Tear away and burn everything", "kill very fast" - How proud the Father of our Nation would be of you and others like you! How happy his soul must be to see his everlasting legacy of non-violence being upheld by the threat of death and fire!
Hmmm...methinks you have some sort of chemical imbalance. Either that or you're just having a lot of fun yanking everyone's chain. Either which way, I've enjoyed reading this thread because it reminds me of a classmate who used to argue round and round in circles who had no clue of what she was talking about in the first place. Damn funny.
Me too Angie, I also enjoyed the thread. Either this guy has real chemical locha or he is trying to be sarcastic on what the situation is in the world around us. I hope its the latter.
this is the most stupidest and the most idiotic comment i have heard on imdb ...no right to use gandhiji ..get out of here...so in what way should we use him..reading in class 8th or 9th textbooks..or on 2nd october..get a life dude..the movie is great and thats the bottom line...
Lol. Wow, Nihits what a great man you are. We should all give you a standing ovation for being such a great supporter of Gandhi, and respecting him the most. Since you say the elder should be making a movie like this, I say why dont you make one, since your such an old person who has experienced Gandhi being shot, and you were to much of a wiss to do anything but sit on your ass, and just cheer he was a great man. This is a movie to remind all of us youngster of what Gandhi stood for and fought for. If the elder were to do this movie, the younger wouldnt have gone to watch it. This is a movie to attract the family, not just a selective group of people. I enjoyed this movie, and recommand everyone to give a try. Nihits, I'm sure your just doing this to get a laugh, and to see exactly how many people will bash you and support Gandhi along the way. Guess what, you win, you've just seen the majority of the peoples here learned something from this movie, and they havent been violented with you. They have been respectful with you, and have let you express your words about the movie. Once again I say we should stand up and give Nihits a standing ovation for doing such a great job Gandhiji-ing.
no they have been disrespectful to gandhiji and me, the only way to be respectful is to agree with me and ban this movie. you dont have right to take gandhijis name like that. gandhi jis place is in history not in family movies. he was such a serious guy and you are laughing at him? majority is going curropt nowdays thats what the thread shows but i am not going to sit and watch it, i will get this movie banned. only old people should make this movie and in black and white cause thats how world was before it became colored in 1960. so why show false truth?
