I saw one such Hindu in Pakistan Idol. If someone does not know he his Hindu, he will think he is actually Muslim. It was evident that to get social acceptance he should come across as Muslim. That is not the case with Muslims in India.
1) only 1? Maybe you should watch that stupid show more often...I stopped when they kicked out soo many potential idols!
Yup thats the show to cherry pick your desires´worth!
2) So how did you know when he had to pretend to be Muslim?
Since you picked up 1 guy...let me show you another whom people wouldnt mistakenly take for Muslim:

The designer has recently created the world's largest
kurta. The kurta, large enough to be worn by a 175-foot-tall (53 m) person, was unveiled at a public ceremony.The
Guinness World Records later certified the entry based on a rigorous documentation process. The kurta weighs 800 kg, is 101 feet tall and 59 feet 3 inches wide. Each sleeve is almost 57 feet long. It took a team of 50 hardworking professional tailors a period of 30 days to make the kurta. The huge kurta is made of 800 yards of cotton blend fabric. According to Perwani, "the kurta is an intrinsic symbol of Pakistani attire, and (this garment) has successfully put it on the global map. A kurta represents the essence of what we are and defines our individuality in today's world." The world's largest designer kurta will later be used to create smaller kurtas that will be donated to children's homes run by the
Edhi Foundation, a Pakistani
NGO.The fashion designer Deepak Perwani is running his own boutique in Pakistan.
His sign represents Power and Men’s confidence which is the most claimed statement in Men’s Designing of Deepak Perwani. The signature “Deepak Perwani” has been set himself by the fashion designer Deepak Perwani.The fashion designer Deepak Perwani not only participated in shows nationwide but also participated in the international fashion shows and showed his designs. Deepak Perwani is also the winner of the Lux and Indus Style Awards.
Just for laughs I will give you another one who isnt shy about his religion:
Rana Bhagwandas (born 20 December 1942), was a senior judge and former acting chief justice of the
Supreme Court of Pakistan (CJP)
As far as protest are concern here in India it is so strong that hardliners have a hard time. Our protest is effective, delivers outcome. What's the point of protest which is not effective? Did anyone managed to change anything on ground? In India minorities who are less than 1% can freely practice, live, and celebrate their religion.
Whatever rows your boat!
Now we have bad guys too, but they are not big enough to subvert the minorities.
That's my point, good and bad are everywhere what matters is if the bad are big enough that you feel total threat or not.
What actually matters is how much time media gives the good time while the bad news is a guaranteed sale...
Criticism is a part of free speech. Some people criticized it as they have the right to do so, but nobody tried to kill anyone. A few approached the court and the court rejected their objection. There were a few incidents of vandalism but in a country with several thousands movie theaters, 5-6 incidents are negligible. If anything, PK showed how tolerant the Indian society is. If a similar movie was made in an Islamic country, many would have died so far.
