Don’t Think There Was a Concept of India Till the British Gave it One : Saif Ali Khan

Funny how they named the company "East INDIA company" when "India" itself never existed.

It's like saying the "East Africa company"

And why are you called East Indians!!
Ever thought about it!!!
If you were East Indians, who are the Indians!!
And what are the red skins, the original inhabitants of North and South Americas are called Indians!!!

Saif Ali Khan is right, says Wajid Ali Khan, got it!!

It ends with the bigot naming his child after a man who killed millions of innocent people.

You mean Ashoka?

 

[TheGreatMaratha]

You mean Ashoka?

To be honest, there's a big difference between Taimur and Ashoka.

We shouldn't care who he names his son after. It's totally his personal choice. Unlike Pakistanis, we respect a person's capability and not religion.

This is the new hindutva India
Everything is now changing

To be honest, there's a big difference between Taimur and Ashoka.

Did both of them kill or lead armies to conquer?

Then it's pretty much the same

They are still superstars in a country Pakistan perceives as strongly anti-Muslim. And no, they are not threatened. They still make movies which are box office hits.

They can be any kind of star.

But the fact they are threatened with even death and murder by politicians just because they opened their mouths is enough to tell us about the society that exists in India

I haven't seen one non-Muslim superstar from Pakistan though.

we don't need to

We are a islamic state since 14 August 1947. we don't need such stars

You need them since you did this drama of being a secular republic to capture as much land as possible and hence needed such muslim looking figures

I don't think you have taken the effort to read about Ashoka then.

They named east Indies for their own administrative ease and it was also factually correct like they named north western part of Africa,west indies

 

[hussain0216]

Look if he killed and launched wars of conquest then it's all the same

The only difference as usual is in your head

Yeh kia ho raha hae?

Yeh koyi Randi Khaana hae?

 

[Nityam]

yup

That is not the only taimoor in this world

Also naming a kid is much better than voting for terrorists and murderers like it is common in hindus of India

He is the only well known Taimoor in the world.

And the only Taimoor the house of Pataudi claim to be decedents from.

Naming a kid after a mass murderer is setting him up for a life of humiliation and regret.

I recall Karunanidhi's son "Stalin" asking people to name their kids after local heroes and not western mass murderers.

What a silly argument you have. They wouldn't be superstars in the first place if they were constantly threatened. And you guys don't even appreciate the love all non-Muslims have given to these stars. We don't them. They took efforts and reached that level. I don't think you can even understand that. Almost all co-stars say that SRK is one the of the most hardworking person on the set. You don't need to look at the person's religion to see that.

And if we didn't have Muslim superstars, you would have cried that how India doesn't has Muslim superstars. When we have Muslim superstars, you cry that it's just a show. We don't care tbh.

We shouldn't care who he names his son after. It's totally his personal choice. Unlike Pakistanis, we respect a person's capability and not religion.

When he publicly posts the name of his son for the world to know then we do care his sone is named after a genocidal maniac.

If it his personal choice he should have kept that news "personal".

In India , we also disrespect a person if they worship mass murdered and genocidal maniacs.

There's a difference between a king who conquers a kingdom and after looking at the all the bloodshed is remoresful and the other kings who keeps on killing people often using religion as a motivator. You can guess who is who.

Taimoor is a name that existed well before some taimoor kicked your as$. Said himself never claimed that he named his son after that taimoor

People who vote terrorists in parliament shouldn't whine about this non issue
