Was wondering how come an alien on Indian soil could not come across a mosque, or a church to see all wrongs things happening there. I am sure he might have seen some jehadis or luring of Adivasis/ dalits going on in different places of worships of secular people who live in a 5000 years old country called Inida.

It is director's prerogative to analyze one religion or another. If you find the movie offensive, seat at your home instead of watching the movie
a few scenes could have to be avoided by the film maker like Shankerji's bathroom scene, marriage of hindu girl with a pakistani boy. These scenes seems to be intentionally put in the film to hurt hindu religion. Otherwise, the film is very good.
It should be ban.. Although the movie's message is not against religion but some scenes and dialog were unnecessary. There are people who will advocate freedom of speech but that does not mean that they have free hand to reach upto the extent which can hurt any sentiments. For e.g. freedom of speech does not mean that I can abuse anyone similarly I should not be hurting religious sentiments only. Many people making this as hyndu-m00slim issue just because of AK but the reality is money minded people does not care about any religion. So AK or producer or director of this movie dont think much beyond this infact this would have gone to far worst level had they not been of the fear of people's reaction.
Secondly, why this movie was not able to balance it like in the other movie OMG is because of some instances which actually violates Indian acceptability. For e.g. marrying to Pak boy which could have been probably diluted down using a Indian m000slim boy or x-tian boy. Also people might be commenting that they would not have dared to speak against M00slim which is in a way true not because they will face a major reaction but because that in majority states if you speak against minority it might be looked upon as exploiting them however if you see that similar social-religious movie in the neighboring countries like 'Khuda k liye' and 'Bol' were accepted to them however may be if this would have been other way round there it might have been seen in different light by the world
