Sena vs SRK

I simply don't care about this issue anymore. I frankly feel Pak cricketers are way overrated and would not have been great assets to their IPL teams anyway. This has been proven in the past editions. While there has been the odd-success-story of Sohail Tanvir there have been several disappointments - Mohd Asif, Shahid Afridi, Shoaib Akhtar, Shoaib Malik to name a few.

Shiv Sena is a fairly irrelevant political entity. Their recent ramblings against Tendulkar should prove beyond a doubt that they have completely lost it. So there is no reason to make a big deal about them targeting SRK.

Both parties are interested in gaining mileage out of this fracas. Sena is trying to get one up on the MNS via this issue. SRK is making sure his film will be a super-hit thanks to this publicity.

What is even more stupid is the way respected journalists are giving importance to this fairly irrelevant issue.

manus: how apt is it that shiv sena is also abbreviated as 'SS'. That should give u a big enough reason to care abt this...Never again should we tolerate the rise of SS anywhere in the world
