Freedom of speech if for indias, why are primates(indians) worried about it.
Arundhati Roy isn’t giving clear answer to Karan’s Question on Can art hurt relgion’s feeling?
Reality is Art can be real world. But real world can never live in art.
my point is Art need to have limitations. Because Life isn’t an ideal situation like Art.
good discussion!
on a different note, to the administrator, can you publish this news item on the explosive report by the Tehelka?

Limitations are in peoples minds :). Freedom of expression cannot be taken hostage by limitations set by some religion or section of people( Why did we fight for freedom from birtish, if it was just to accept limitations). Its very disappointing that we are born in such a superficial society what about art on the temples that we have and kamasutra that our ancestors wrote, don’t they indicate a society of free expression and thought with out inhibition.
This whole issue is as the lady says is diverting attention from bad policies in West Bengal, hope commies perish from india and hope ” we have true free speech”.
Love and Peace
