Bollywood icon Amitabh Bachchan has blogged his disappointment over the banning of his latest starrer 'Aarakshan'. The mega star feels that the entire proceedings has developed his fear of weakness in his belief in government.
Big B wrote, "Without any knowledge of what the film contains, without any desire to determine the trust and the most basic principles of law of democracy, it has merely strengthened my and many others' fear of the weakness it conveys of our belief in governance and its ethics."
He further added by saying, "What is the need then of the Censor Board, a statutory body instituted by you, the legislatures and Parliamentarians that govern this land. You nominate what you believe, to disbelieve what you nominate!! Better to remove it altogether then rather than give it disrespect."
Expressing full faith in the film and not bothered by its economic outcome at the B.O. Big B says, "I do not care and never have cared about the fate of any film of mine, and I never shall. I do not care if this film does well or not, but I shall admit, this film has shown a mirror to the country and to one of its conditions. This film has shown a path that needs to be taken for a better and more secure future of this country. And if god forbid this film fails at the box office, it shall demonstrate to a large extent the failure of the reality in the country, that today it struggles with."
Supporting his character and his belief, Big B ahs further blogged by saying, "I shall believe and will always believe in the words that Dr Prabhakar Anand pronounces during the course of this film - Is desh mein do bharat baste hain... aur sahi mano mein agar hum samaaj mein parivartan chahte hain, toh in dono ke beech ka jo antar hai use mitana padega... (Two India's reside in this country .. and truthfully if we have to see any progress in our society, then the distance between these must be erased ..)."
