Rang de basanti and Wednesday were more than mere bollywood movies. They actually hit the much needed spark in some of the non-eunuchs of our society. Guided or misguided, they rose, and tried to change something. Were the successful? No.
Imagine this. Rahul, a boy next door of Patna is an average youth. He gets a diploma in Radiology, and one fine day, goes to a big city called Mumbai for a walk in interview. And 22 days later, is encountered by the Mumbai Police for supposedly threatening the life of a number of bus passengers, shouting "Jai Bihar, Jai Patna", also being alleged that he was gonna kill some bigshot guy called Raj Thakeray.
Sounds feasible? Yeah, Biharis are unpredictable. Back in Bihar, they play with rifles and pistols like toys, you know.
Okay, lemme make something clearer here. This Rahul belonged to a typical middle class family, with no political connections and no criminal history.
They called him the 'Prince' of the mohalla for his subtle and gentle nature.
Still sounds feasible? Okay, let's suppose that this actually happened, which it did, actually. Now the big question is,
"WHY??"
What forced Rahul to become a mass life threatening gunman?
What forces a youth to take a revolver in the pen holding hand?
Revenge.
Now, what sort of revenge did Rahul want to take?
Revenge to the INSULT of hundreds of Biharis in their own country. Maharashtra (literally, the great land), can not tolerate the Bihari people occupying their job positions. 'THEIR' job postions.
Wtf, dude.
If I am an unemployed guy, I would definitely want to work. Work anywhere in my country. Who the hell are you to stop me from workin in this part of India or that part. I have a constitutional right to move, settle and work in any normal part (by normal, I mean not ethnically preserved) of my country.
So, shut the fuck up, and mind your business. And lemme give the interview and lemme get the job and lemme feed my family. I might not be as rich andd powerful as you, and i don't aspire to be one. But I want to live, and I have to work in order to live.
And I don't need no passport or any fuckin permission from any political freak.
May be this was the message that Rahul Raj wanted to give to Raj Thakeray. All he was trying to do was to get some media attention, so that the meek voice of a common man reaches the power zones.
And what he got were two bullets in his head, and two bullets in his chest.
Readers of this post, think.
And comment what you feel.

ppl like raj thakary should be burnt live in public, because they are no good to society nor to themselves. they play with the lives and emotions of ppl through their bloody political motives and end up screwing some innocent mans life. wtf, he openly advises the formation of hindu jihadis on the line of lashkar and other militant group, god knows how the hell ppl still support him inspite of his selfish and rudimentry age old aggressive philosopies which have no place in our modern society
baat sau take ki hai ....raj thackeray is blatantly violating the constitution and the govt isnt doing anything to stop him, just for the sake of a few votes
some incidents command no rights or wrongs.. they are caught in the middle..!
while that 23 something guy might be right in acting his expression of anger, he was certainly on the wrong side in brandishing a country made revolver on a crowded Mumbai Bus...
while the police might be right in "immobilising" this potentially lethal moving source... they were clearly wrong in immobilising him a little too much...
a mix of rights and wrongs make all injustices and this might be an incident which will be downplayed because it was not on the legal side..
All satyagraha movements must be run in a Gandhian way.. Because.. it makes that hard for the law to shoot at you with real bullets!
Encountering a student ...for carrying a gun in the hand --- for God's sake who even knows if he had carried a gun i.e the gun planted by the bureaucracy itself.
The Mumbai police can't encounter terrorists and other criminals who vandalize the life of so many so it had to finally quest its thirst by taking the life of an innocent individual.
As a matter of fact, it seems certain that this case will be closed with no further investigation and and no-one will do anything about it. Everything is politically inspired.
What does the Govt. want - students to come down on the road with ak's in their hand in protest. Now who is the one creating terrorists, the bureaucracy itself.If these incidents don't stop, a time will come when the nation would have to burn in the agony of the innocent.
i dont have words... but yaa sumthin serios must be done to the ppl who want achieve popularity by raising communal issues...sumtimes it may be language,region,religion or anything else...but these ppl need punishement..but wat can we do..we who hav sense of equality never even try to cast thr vote..so why would gud leader cum up...wen a person knows he has to lead such kinda morons who think like him thr is nothing wrong and dont blame raj thackrey for it.. blame urself.. and salute rahul .... who is martyr but still is unnoticed by majority of thsi society...anything... rahul i sympathizise ur family because they hav groomed u well ...not like rest of us..who r shit and just speak shit so that we are popularised and will never standup for anything..
And today, another North Indian, this time from UP got beaten to death by some marathi miscreants in broad daylight in a Mumabi local train.
What the fuck!!!

Where is the all brave, trigger happy police now ???
thats right , all the mis-happenings with the student was a little too much, bigger punishment for a trivial thing. but thats how "monarchy"[raj of raj thakrey] works!then politicians back in Bihar joined hands to condemn the act , with a series of political "kutniti" happening! but the point is , did a common Maharastrian ever opposed a North Indian ever? No! its only a handful of extremists who always exaggerate and try to mould the mind set of commoners. Same might have happened in 1947 Indo-Pak relationship. with non-involvement of any single commoner in any sort of communal hatred, politicians exaggerate and try to infuse lot of hatred in minds of people. My point is why do we choose such people to decide the fate of our country?
