Aamir-SRK solidarity: This was no tamasha!

Aamir-SRK solidarity: This was no tamasha!

/> I am shocked at the kind of stories a section of the film media cooks up to attract eyeballs, at times.

Everyone knows that Aamir and SRK lent their complete and absolute support to the producers/distributors on the multiplex issue. But a section of the media has been discussing: (i) Who delivered a 'better speech', (ii) Who 'looked better', while a few others decided to call it a ‘publicity stunt' (!!!). It's disgusting!

Aamir and SRK have never stooped so low ever, even when they needed hits to cement their status as superstars. One can vouch for Aamir, SRK, even Hrithik, Saif and Shahid; they'd never pull a stunt to stay in limelight or plug their new release. You can accuse a few top actors of doing so, not them.

Also, why are we forgetting that both Aamir and SRK are producers as well and this solidarity was a step in the right direction?

A section of the media loves to hallucinate at times. Had Aamir and SRK stayed away from this issue, the same media would've flogged them for not siding with their brethren. Now that they've rightfully stood by the producers/distributors, it's being described as a 'publicity stunt'.

A few people also feel that the actors haven't buried their differences, despite the show of solidarity last week. Chalo, maan lo, even if they do have differences over certain issues, when did they ever proclaim that they would swear by each other henceforth? The fact is, they came together for a cause and we should genuinely appreciate the effort.

It's about time the media gets its act right!
