“Parzania, the movie about the Gujarat riots has had some spectacular reviews. Unfortunately I don’t think I will get to watch it. The movie is not going to be screened in Gujarat out of “fear” of offending sentiments. What happened to the freedom of speech?”
“Duh. That died a long time ago dude. Go get a life. The mobs rule.”
“What about blood diamonds? The diamond traders here actually went on record saying that they would like to watch the movie.”
“Doesn’t make economic sense man. Don’t you see the serious lack of audience for English movies? Big ticket movies like Spiderman and Harry Potter were released with subtitles. Others were dubbed”
“(Sarcastically) Ah. So that is how they expect to have a command over the English language while cracking exams like the CAT.”
“SHUT UP. A statement like that will cost you dearly”
Silence
Guess the same thing goes for the theater owners.
