Hindu Dharma

Hindus should force, in lawful manner, withdrawal of mockery made of their objects of faith !


HJS demands criminal case; women also unhappy

Mumbai: Under the guise of comedy, Mahesh Manjrekar has stooped to very low level in ridiculing objects of worship of Hindus in a Marathi film produced by him titled ‘Shahanpan Dega Deva’. The despicable mockery of Draupadi in the film has generated anger among Hindus. Mrs. Shalini Thackeray, the Vice-President of MNS and Mrs. Sheetal Kadrekar, a columnist from ‘Dainik Vartahar’ have also condemned the mockery. Hindus have demanded that the mockery should be omitted from the film and the Censor Board which has no respect for religious sentiments of Hindus should be dissolved.

‘Shahanpan Dega Deva’ produced under the banner of ‘Great Maratha Enetrtainment Company Pvt. Ltd.’ and directed by Sudesh Manjrekar was released on Friday. It is a story about 5 madmen. One of them, enacted by actor Vaibhav Mangale, has the habit of dressing up in attires of different Deities. As his servant, Siddharth Kamble makes strange gestures. The attempt to create comedy out of this, is based on the incident of ‘Draupadi Vastraharan’ from Holy Scripture of Hindus ‘Mahabharata’ and there is also denigration of Sri Ganesha, Srikrushna, Durgamata and Shiva. (It is due to lack of unity among Hindus that people dared to make mockery of things worshipped by Hindus ! – Editor SP)
Women take inititaive !


Shalini Thackeray of MNS said, “The Censor Board will be asked to explain the matter about mockery made of Draupadi. When the President of Censor Board is Sharmila Tagore, a woman, how can such thing happen? This shows that the Board is not functioning properly.” Mrs. Sheetal Kadrekar has written in strong words about the denigration in her column ‘Sakhi’ and the producer and director of the film. She has also made a demand to dissolve the inactive Censor Board. (Congratulations to Mrs. Shalini Thackeray and Mrs. Sheetal Kadrekar for taking up the matter of mockery of Draupadi ! Will other pro-Hindu organizations learn from this and become active ? – Editor SP)

Mahesh Manjrekar renders casual apology


In the news published by ‘Dainik Vartahar’, Mahesh Manjrekar has said, “This is a ‘mad’ comedy. We did not expect the meaning as construed by you from these sentences. This is a very light humour. It was not our intention to hurt religious sentiments of anybody. In case somebody feels that way, I express apology.” (By saying ‘ifs and buts..’, Manjrekar shows he is an experienced professional. Such Hindus are real foes of Hindu Dharma. Will Manjrekar, who has made mockery of places of worship of Hindus, shows such daring to ridicule worshipped objects of followers of other religions? – Editor SP)

Despicable mockery from the film

1. Actor Vaibhav is dressed like Lord Krushna. He says, “This incarnation is for clarifying obstacles in the game of cricket.” Sanjay Narvekar, who is a cricket-fan shouts, ‘Come on India …’ and starts removing his shirt when Vaibhav asks him, ‘Are you Draupadi?’
2. Bald Vaibhav dresses like Lord Ganapati with stethoscope as his trunk and broken chalk piece as tooth. He uses leaves as ears. Everyone teases him as ‘Elephant Maharaj’.
3. Vaibhav stands with a stick in his hand when he poses like Durgamata; Siddhartha Jadhav becomes a lion and passes comic remarks.
4. Hideous gestures and banter takes place between Shankar, Parvati and Nandi
5. A fake ‘sadhu’ is disrobed and Vaibhav and Siddhartha take out even their clothes while comparing them with Lord Datta.
