celebrities (even out of sight people like Mahesh Bhatt) are unfortunately in the public eye. They ought to be careful of what they say. Bhatt must say something positive and constructive instead of slamming the very thing Anna Hazare has been striving so hard for. on second thoughts, let's not take him seriously. he's not that big a personality anymore. Just that he must stop treating this matter like his inane movies
Mahesh Bhatt has proven over the years that he is not just an idiot but is completely prejudiced and parochial. He is a hypocrite.
It is not important whether we will achieve the goal of cleaning up the system with Jan Lok Pal. What is important is that we must do our karma. Our fight must go on. We should NOT be complacent and accept corruption as our fate.
The fight to clean up the society is not a mirage. When you win or lose in the fight, the fight MUST go on.

What Mahesh Bhatt say is true. It is oasis. Corruption will get out of the society if we wish . Because if we as society remain corrupt the people employed with Lokpal will be corrupt and one more department for corrupt people to gather black money.

If you say corruption CANNOT be removed I strongly disagree. There is a moral issue involved but more than moral issue it is non implementation of rule of law. It has become extremely easy for the corrupt to thrive because the corrupt have become rich and powerful and are misusing their power to subvert the system.
Jan Lok Pal will most definately help although other measures are also required.

Karma is action whether good or bad. Karma if done within the ambit of dharma (duty) is good karma and karma which is not as per dharma is bad karma. Fighting for equality for all by eradicating corruption is good karma.
Mahesh Bhatt created villains in movies but in real life, he seems to be one. Whether Anna Hazaare is creating mirage for his personal benefit. If you find fault in him, why don't you work for achieving corruption free country. You don't do yourself any thing and tweets messages sitting in air-conditioned room I think. Be sensitive to people's feeling.

Mahesh Bhatt should better concentrate on creating his films like Murder and Jism. That way he will be more popular and will get more attention of public.

I have criticised Bhatt and distractors of Anna and this B-l-o-dd-y moderator of Rediff has blocked it. This always happens in this loathsome blog.

Mahesh Bhatt is a crazy unstable old man ... He married more than twice .. converted to Islam but retained his old name .. Had multiple affairs with heroines ... hence he does not stand credible to speak on a great man like Anna !
If u support Anna, then u have ask the questions yourself Am i corrupt-b'cause i am a filmstar invirtue of my father (for eg:anilkapoor.) I have deprived one very talented actor from film. the money i get from producer-are they white or black. is it funded by a corrupt man or underworld. not hesitating to lobby for a role by any means. if the answers are yes to the above questions, better not comment on corruption. change yourselves first.
How many of these Bollywood stars who are now supporting Anna are above board? How many of them are paying their taxes sincerely. It is just a drama by them to get cheap publicity.

tax percentage in india is too much. first they have to reduce it with reasonable percentage. follow islamic sharia for these kind of things.

good that allahi didn't give the islamist any brain? show a country with green flag has any brain?
rediff sometimes shows the low of paid journalism. We all know how rediff is a paid dog of Congress. 90% actors are supporting Anna, but redif found the words of Mahesh Bhatt to use as title.
If this movement is not a request for change from WITHIN THE DEMOCRACY, then what exactly is your definition of 'within'. There is a need to change the procedures WITHIN parliament first as they hold the police ,law and the machinery in their hands and they know every law of the land to misuse it.
I am getting a very strong feeling that Rediff is anti-Anna.
Rediff doesn't miss any chance to highlight anti-Anna comments.
All those people who are anti-Anna are free to write/publish their articles here and if you write any pro-Anna comments, Rediff would either delete them or would not post it at all.

i do completely agree with u Mr. wadhawa.also it seems that anti- anna commenters were getting paid by govt too!
Not a single Bollywood actor or industrialist will come to Ramlila Maidan and support Anna Hazare. How can they? They are in the highest tax brackets and hence worried that they will make the government angry.
They can certainly tweet non commital nonsense though.

exaclty, bollywood has been shouting criminal-politician nexus for 60 years in its movies. When it comes to leading by example- they are the last one in the q.

Indians are all born to be servants. They were very happy under the British Rule.The Corrupt Govt. should increase the prices by atleast 500% so that everything is out of reach of the common man. Let only the rich survive in "the survival of the fittest ( most corrupt)". When such a situation turns up, then only will the common man understand the trouble & the meaning of ANNA's agitation. & by the way ... do vote for the CONGRESS again & again.!!
