'PK' is not against any religion: Ramdev aide Ved Pratap Vaidik


New Delhi, Jan 1 (IANS): An aide to yoga guru Ramdev says there is nothing wrong with Aamir Khan-starrer "PK" and that it only exposes those who misuse religion.

Ved Pratap Vaidik told IANS that he was amazed at the kind of people denouncing the movie. He said Ramdev might revise his critical views if he sees the Bollywood hit.

"Whatever Ramdev was told by people, on that basis he issued a statement (critical of the movie). But now perhaps he will see the film and form his own opinion," Vaidik said.

"The film is against hypocrites, against fraudulent people, against those who in the name of god or in the name of religion are setting up their own 'dhanda' (business).

"I was amazed why people are protesting against this film.

"The film should be watched before opposing it. (Critics) will stop opposing it if they watch it. The people are opposing the film because of a misunderstanding, there is no other reason," Vaidik said.

"PK" portrays Aamir Khan as an alien who is fascinated by India. The film released Dec 19 and also stars Anushka Sharma, Sanjay Dutt, Boman Irani and Sushant Singh Rajput.

Vaidik said filmmakers should not fear such protests.

    Mr. Mahendran Shetty,

    Don’t take serious about this Milan. I have been following his comments in DW since 3 – 4 days. This guy is working in Dubai in an office with most of the colleagues with his ideology. There is tremendous number of agrees for his comments/those who supports is comments and lot of disagree for those who writes against his comments. The gap between agree and disagree is huge. I never seen this trend in DW since long. After making his counterparts to click disagree for those comments against him he will write here that “Look at the disagree, people have rejected your view”. If a readers agrees the views Milan is expressing, that reader will agree for all those who is expressing the same view of Milan. Why they will click agree only for Milan. Million dollar question?

    I will give one example, for a comments he write against Ramdev there was approx. 80-90 agree within 2 hours from the time it published here, whereas for same type of comments against Ramadev by others agree was very very lesser than his comments. If you observe you can make out easily.

    PK is not against any religion, instead it shows the real face of Indian religion stigma, developed by so called religious hypocrite leaders, and belief of people on these leaders,but not against to any religion, pick up the Good and forget the least, and one must see the film, then comment!!!

    This movie is similar to the movie "Oh My God". Oh My God also went through controversies. There is nothing wrong in the movie. It does not depict God in any manner. It's against those who manipulate the religion for their advantage. Hope God enlightens minds of less informed and gives more wisdom to think rationally.

    Swami Agnivesh, Ved pratap Vaidik are original PK (Pakistan's short form for web domain) fans anyways!.. they are on COngress pay roll... so should not be taken seriously! Nidumamibdi and oher swami brigdes in Karnataka also same! they oppose other mutts etc.. but when they realised "religious institue endowment act" may bring danger to their own mutt also, then they opposed it and made Siddu to it!! so when it hurts them they will oppose... until then everything is secular...

    UP governemtns, gives tax free for this movie where Aamir gets paid whopping 60 crore!!.... Then it will go and beg to central govt for more fund!!

    Yes, PK is not any harm to any religion...! but politics around it is unfortunate! Let us see when next "controversial" movie releases, how others will behave... Uphold your values then too! :)
