There are only 2 reasons for Bollywood to glorify Islam and making fun of Hindu culture -
- Fear of losing business
- Increase in business by targeting Hindus
I will take the first reason - Fear of losing business.
Bollywood has a huge viewer base in India and overseas. In overseas - Pakistan, Gulf, and Middle-East are one of the bases. In addition to that they can not risk their business if they anger Muslims in India.
The reason that Bollywood can not take a risk Muslim rage is because of what they have experienced in the past.
Bollywood directors understood long back that if present Islam, in its true colors is projected with truth, then many Muslims won’t tolerate that. So, they don’t show the darker part of it e.g. triple talaq, gender inequality, child-marriage etc.
Some directors tried but faced a huge protest from Muslim community.
The second reason - Increase in business by targeting Hindus is very easy to explain. Hindus have always been an easy target. Make fun of their Gods/ Goddesses, their culture/traditions, their religious beliefs and you can easily en-cash your movie.
It is because a typical Hindu is taught to criticize their own beliefs but not hurting others.
I have many Hindu friends going to Church or Mosque and proudly posting their pictures on social media with captions like - “felt solace after visiting Mount Mary church” or “Haji Ali is such a peaceful place”.
But I have many Muslim/Christian friends always comparing Jesus with Krishna or Ram with Allah and giving their non-sense justifications that why Islam/Christianity is superior than Hinduism.
It is Bollywood which made Hindus guilty of the crime they have never committed and present day Hindu lives with a burden of “being a Hindu”.
Bollywood celebrities like Aamir Khan made the show Satyamev Jayate to highlight the evils of our society. It covered all the major evils -
The highlighted in “Yellow” were majorly focused on evils/malpractices in Hindu society.
Did you notice anything unusual ?
Out of these 23+ episodes, Aamir Khan didn’t touch a single episode on evils in Muslim society.
Why?
Does that mean there are no evil/malpractices in Muslim/Christians ?
The producers did not want any kind of controversial hurdle which could have spoiled their show because of Islamic/Christian rage.
Thanks for reading!
Extra Materials-
1- Recently released movie “Sanju” is purely a successful attempt by RajKumar Hirani & Vidu Vinod Chopra in whitewashing the image of notorious Sanjay Dutt.
Rajkumar Hirani who is an infamous Hinduphobic, very carefully removed the involvement of Dawood Ibrahim in Mumbai bomb blasts.
In the movie, he showed Sanjay Dutt gets in touch with some Hindu underworld gangsters and finally got involved in crime of keeping the AK 56.
This shows a systematic plan of Bollywood to defame Hinduism and glorify Islam.
Extra Material-
2- Many people commented that criticism is good for any religion. I totally agree to that. Hinduism is pioneer in this. The current form of Hinduism is refined and cleansed after so many reforms from time to time.
However, I don’t see the same with the “peaceful” religion. Recently Nida Khan is exiled out of her religion for criticizing Islam. She is supporter of ban on triple talaq. She is an activist is trying to bring changes in the life of Muslim women through reforms in Islam.
Where is Bollywood, NDTV, Swati Maliwal, Jantar Mantar Activists, and Krantikaaris of social media ?
