Its so funny that Indians always go negative on any issue. Before Olympic no celebrity was involved in any other sport (only cricket cricket) and now if government is doing something to lift up sports, you guys have your own views. so funny. Instead of criticizing you guys should be happy atleast first step is on the way....super celebrities like khan's, bachans should also be involved to motivate other sports...so finance and infrastructure problem will be solved automatically. We dont need politicians to head sports but CEO's or other intelligent people....

Well said, Ravi. You are right. Out icon standards are generally very low and celluloid.

Guy cooolll down....the problem with Indian society and especially people like you is - We Do Not Let People Improve and Repent for their deeds...He is trying to repent...and also see what all has happened in his personal life...as per the Ambassador wait and see what he really would do for the Boxing freternity in genral till then concentrate on other inportant issues of life...

When his mafia/terrorist friends killed hundruds of Mumbaits/Indians on the Marathi soil, killed many Marathi Manoos on the Marathi soil, even after that his films were not banned, he was not protested against or stones were not thrown at his residence or shouted at. Poor Amithabh and family, just for giving foolish rhetoric statements about Hindi are terrorised and banned. Poor AB and family does not have mafia/underworld connection/protection. All these manoos are afraid of Sanju dada and his mafia friends/protectors.
Way to go... Ex Drug addict, A person who doesnt care about Indian Law, A TADA suspect and convicted for possessing deadly weapons, controversies with his latest marriage and what not...
No matter what he does for this country, he in an accussed in Mumbai Bomb Blast. I dont care even if he donates his whole property to the poor. Justice denied for all those who lost their lives. God save this country.

Although i have a lot of material to create a table ,just like yours,and show how equally good Noth India is,but i dont want to do this comparison.you should be ashamed of urself tamil,u r an INDIAN.you seem to be so frustrated.This is where we indians lack.why this comparison based on states/language etc. everytime.An american never does anything like this,or even nearer home,not even the chinese does this or even a pakistani.any foreigner reading this would say how divided we are and would laugh at our view point.We say india has diverse culture.is this the diverse culture we talking whih ACTUALLY divides us.WHY DO WE TALK AS NORTH AND SOUTH INDIAN.WHY CANT WE TALK AS INDIANS?
let me tell you one thing it is very easy to divide.why cant we stay UNITED and even stop thinking on those lines.
why such division politics for an article in rediff for sports?
