BJP leader L K Advani praises PK & Aamir Khan

While certain religious Hindu groups have taken deep offence to PK's portrayal of Hindu Gods, it seems BJP and its leaders don't really hold the same extreme point of view. The party's tallest leader, L K Advani  who recently watched the movie was all praises for the plot and riveting performances.

Said Advani, "Hearty greetings to Rajkumar Hirani and Vidhu Vinod Chopra for a wonderful and courageous film that they have produced in the shape of PK. We are fortunate to have been born in a vast and variegated country like India. This however casts on all patriots a duty to ensure that nothing weakens the unity of the country- neither caste nor community nor language nor region, and certainly not religion."

Talking about the take on religion as showcased in PK, Advani said, "I believe that religiosity is for our nation, an inexhaustible source of spiritualism, and so of ethical conduct. Those who run down religion, any religion, are doing a great disservice to the country and to its unity It is this cardinal lesson that emerges clearly out of this recently released film PK which has excellent performances by the protagonist Aamir Khan, Anushka Sharma and Boman Irani.”

We are sure Advani's praise would be good music to Aamir's ears.
