Sanjay Dutt-starrer Lage Raho Munnabhai seems to have captured the imagination of today’s youth with its exuberant spirit of Gandhigiri.
CNN-IBN’s Citizen Gandhi initiative proved as much.
Many readers wrote in to IBNLive.com with their ideas and opinions on Gandhigiri.
Bhavik Dand, a Mumbai student, talks about using Gandhigiri as tool to drive home a message to Union Human resource Minister Arjun Singh about the reservation controversy.
A few students have taken up a new idea to battle against reservation after watching Lage Raho Munnabhai and indeed the movie has had a great impact
Orkut.com a web portal having 28,768,055 members has been a new hotspot for the youth to vent their views.
There are various communities like “Get well soon Arjun Singh” created with over 800 members.
I am not for or against such an idea or a demonstration of protest but I would like the masses to come to know about the impact great films like Lage Raho Munnabhai can have.
The message:
For the very ill Arjun Singh.
He is suffering from acute illness of quotas and reservation. He requires our best wishes and support to get well soon. Let us see what happens when the radical concept of Gandhigiri combines with the anti reservation protests.
