Ever since Lage Raho Munnabhai, interest in Mahatma Ghandi and Ghandigiri (I hope I got that word right) has increased and Sanjay Dutt will be honoured for his contribution to the cause.
At his Pune jail cell, Sanjay will be credited by three officials from the Ghandi Vichar Andolan organisation, which states the even though Sanjay is in jail, it’s for a different matter and his contribution to the cause is much more important.
“We have taken note of the fact that what the entire nation could not do in independent India has been achieved by Sanjay Dutt through his role as Munna Bhai.
“The extent to which the message of Mahatma Gandhi could be spread through the film was incredible. I am really impressed by the overwhelming impact the film made on the minds of common people.”
As far as we are concerned, we see enough reason to felicitate the man who deserves praise for effectively spreading the message of the father of the nation.”
“Sanjay has done something that books, visuals, and other laudable efforts could not achieve over the decades.”
Well, even though Sanjay was the ’star’ that made people pay attention, shouldn’t the writers of the movie get some credit too? After all, they came up with the ideas.
