All this boycott stuff is noise. If the movie fails, its because it was bad. Nobody boycotted LIGER, it crashed by itself. You give twitter too much credit. The fault lies with poor scripts, overpaid actors and a lack of cultural substrate in mainstream bollywood.

So? Did they commit a crime or did they not? Where does color come into the picture? If they are innocent, then that is a separate issue & a travesty of justice. But if guilty, then the arrest is a logical step for the police. Sounds like you are against law and order.

'65 was basically a draw. Anyone who says India won is making a mistake. Anyone who says Pakistan won, is making an even bigger mistake.
Nearly 6 decades ago, an over confident coterie of Pak generals with new US battle tanks & a tactically sound yet operationally naive Indian military leadership fought each other to a standstill. That in a nutshell is my understanding of the 1965 war after a few days research.

Carving out the category of “Hindu-American”—as opposed to its alternatives, “Indian-American”—has been a key step. It allows a group such as the Hindu American Foundation to erase the relationships between many Hindus and other South Asians.
