Shiv Sena In Punjab Has Offered Rs. 1 Lakh Reward To Anybody Who Slaps Aamir Khan. WTF?

Aamir Khan and troubled waters have always had a special relationship. Any time there’s a controversy and the actor somehow magically pops up at the scene.

 

Recently Aamir Khan spoke at the Ramnath Goenka Awards function of The Indian Express Group and expressed his opinion on how he and his wife Kiran Rao were alarmed at the amount of growing intolerance and disquiet and how his wife was actually questioned if they should ‘move out of India’.

His opinion obviously wasn’t taken well, and several ‘patriots’ questioned his love for the nation.

 

Shiv Sena in Ludhiana Punjab, has gone one step further and have announced an ‘award’ for Rs. 1 Lakh to anybody who will slap Aamir Khan.

They even burned an effigy and photographs of Aamir Khan and even used derogatory language to stage the protest. Aamir Khan, who is staying in Ludhiana for the shoot of his upcoming movie Dangal, has already had his security beefed up.

 

Rajiv Tandon, Punjab Chairman of Shiv Sena said, “We give an opportunity to the manager and employees of the hotel and also the team of his film to slap Aamir and get Rs 1 lakh from us. The courageous and patriotic persons who will slap Aamir Khan in Ludhiana will get Rs 1 lakh reward per slap from us.”

Apart from the security of the actor, security for the hotel has been increased as well, as Shiv Sena members have been protesting outside the hotel and blocking traffic as well.
It is interesting to note that while Aamir Khan’s one statement has garnered so much attention, why do people fail to notice that it is, in fact, his opinion, and a tolerant India would have let him have his thoughts without burning effigies or staging protests.

And by offering an incentive to physically assault a person is a new low in Indian politics.
