Dera Saccha Sauda leader Gurmeet Ram Rahim arrested

January 18, 2016 by Nasheman

Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh

Chandigarh: A few days after the Kiku Sharda aka Palak was arrested for allegedly hurting the religious sentiments of his followers, Dera Saccha Sauda leader Gurmeet Ram Rahim is facing similar charges himself.

As per a report in Mail Today, All India Hindu Student Federation, in a complaint to Mohali Police, has accused Ram Rahim of hurting religious sentiments by dressing up as Lord Vishnu.

In a video that has gone viral Ram Rahim can be seen descending from the sky as Lord Vishnu. Student leaders are not amused with the act and have sought that the police lodge a FIR against the self-styled guru.

However, the police are yet to file an FIR against the Sirsa-based guru, who also commands sizeable influence in the doaba region of Punjab.

Hindu leaders now plan to approach DGP of Punjab Police with their grievance. Hey have also threatened to move the court if the police fails to take action against Ram Rahim.

This is the second time Gurmeet Ram Rahim is facing such a charge. He had earlier invited the ire of the Sikh community by gressing up like tenth Sikh guru Gobind Singh, a charge he has denied.

Mumbai: Comedian Kiku Sharda, best known for his role in the show ‘Comedy Nights with Kapil’, was today arrested for allegedly hurting the sentiments of the followers of Sirsa-based Dera Sacha Sauda.

Kiku was sent to 14-day judicial custody after police produced him before the court of Nandita Kaushik, Chief Judicial Magistrate here.

He was arrested from Mumbai by the Haryana Police. Kiku was booked on December 31 under section 295 A of the Indian Penal Code (outraging religious feelings of any class by insulting its religion or religious belief).

A case was registered on the complaint of one Uday Singh, the follower of Dera Sacha Sauda, police said here.

While talking to media after his arrest, Kiku apologised and said that he was an artist and “presented the programme on the directions of the channel and programme producers”.

“I was given a dress, script to read and directed to act,” he said, adding that he had been booked in this case but no action was taken against others including the TV channel.

He said that his aim was only to entertain the public and not to hurt the religious feeling and sentiments of any person.

Dera followers had alleged that Sharda had hurt their religious sentiments in an episode of the TV show aired on December 27.

Dera followers had even protested against the actor, who shot to fame with comedy show “FIR”, seeking action against him.

Nasheman.in interviews Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh

“I am 100% sure that ‘MSG 2 – The Messenger’ will enjoy a riproaringly run away success, which was never before seen in the history of world cinema” – Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh

Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh

A few years back when ‘MSG – The Messenger’ was released it had created quite an uproar and Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh had gained an instant limelight. Then there was silence on his front. And now once again a couple of years down the line the same kind of frenzy is witnessed amongst the people as soon as they came to know about the imminent release of Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh’s 2nd film namely ‘MSG 2 – The Messenger’. But this time round Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh has donned the multiple roles thereby sharing credits in most of the departments of the film ‘MSG 2 – The Messenger’. The 1st movie ‘MSG – The Messenger’ had motivated the youths in the right directions. The movie had touched the figure of 1650 millions, in earnings.

To begin with tell us whether your 2nd movie ‘MSG 2 – The Messenger’ an action or a thriller movie?

I would say that ‘MSG 2 – The Messenger’ is basically a thriller movie but one which is rich in action & suspense.

What are main objectives of your 2nd movie ‘MSG 2 – The Messenger’?

Once again I would like to state that. My 2nd movie ‘MSG 2 – The Messenger’ aims to motivate the masses, once again, against wicked conventions like the marriage of under aged daughters in backward regions or backward society, discard corruption & discourage exploitation through child labour. Actually speaking ‘MSG 2 – The Messenger’ is based upon the improvements in the lifestyle of tribal people. They were provided with scientific knowledge about the ill effects of non – vegetarian meals, tobacco and other intoxicants. The movie shows the righteous transformation in their existing living conditions.

It seems that more than 1.3 million artistes had participated in ‘MSG – The messenger’. How many skilled performers are playing their role in ‘MSG 2 – The Messenger’?

The number of artistes has reached the same level as in ‘MSG: The messenger’. In the new movie ‘MSG 2 – The Messenger’, there are a good number of eminent scenes & songs in which many performers were required.

Is it true that certain professional artistes were also being engaged for ‘MSG 2 – The Messenger’?

No, mostly new youth performers had been encouraged. Certain original tribal people are also participating as per the requirement in the movie. But yes the role of a major villain is being played by Amit who had already performed the role of “Duryodhana” in the religiously devotional small screen serial “Mahabharata”.

Your 1st movie ‘MSG – The Messenger’ has been very successful despite lack of your professional training as an actor. Comment on its huge success.

It has all been due to the blessings of God – The Almighty. Although we did not possess any professional training in acting but worked with virtuous intentions. By and by people realise your morale & consciousness, you shall definitely acquire success if your perceptions are right.

You intended to give eminent message to the masses through your debut movie namey ‘MSG – The Messenger’. Do you feel satisfied with the extent of public response?

We as a whole team certainly feel contented that the desired message has reached scores people through the movie ‘MSG – The messenger’. Many persons have discarded the use of cigarette & intoxicants after watching the movie and many more have thrown away the narcotics even in our presence. We feel delighted on the fulfilment of our noble objectives. It is quite astonishing that one person has even arranged a marriage with a prostitute under the influence of the said movie.

Why was the film not been released in Punjab, even when the people in Punjab had a great desire for the release of the movie in their state?

It would have been beneficial if the movie had been released in Punjab. But of course the people of that state went to other nearby states to enjoy the movie because it proved useful for persons belonging to different religions & sections of the society.

The names of politicians are getting projected in the groups of drug mafia now a days, where as they should develop the responsibilities of performing the noble tasks?

Be that as it maybe. I would only like to state that dealings with all the narcotics should be banned as these damages the very fortune of the present generation. Business personnel can invest their wealth & earn better in other fields. People can also get involved in the cultivation & trading of medicines as well.

Your involvement in the composition & projection of a movie is bringing dual improvements, firstly, you are motivating for the relinquishment of social evils and secondly you are promoting the atmosphere for the exhibition of movies with noble intention & thoughts. Your kind message is solicited for the persons linked with the movie?

You see ‘MSG 2 – The Messenger’ is exhibiting the romance angle as well, which was not prevalent in our 1st movie ‘MSG – The Messenger’. It also includes a good love song based on the lives of tribals but it is not indecent. I sincerely feel that the film industry should compose movies with healthy concepts so that parents, their daughters or even the entire family can collectively view the movies. Actors & actresses may perform action & romance but they should induce positive thoughts in youth because they consider them as character icons. Besides I also feel that artistes should earn their name & fame in graceful manners

Does ‘MSG 2 – The Messenger’ also include stunts performed by you?

‘MSG 2 – The Messenger’ certainly contains a good number of real stunts. All these stunt actions have been performed not only by me but also by many other artiste as well and mind you not by any duplicate members.

What were the number of languages being used for the audition of the movie ‘MSG 2 – The Messenger’?

Frankly speaking only 2 languages namely Hindi & English, for the time being. Actually speaking the film ‘MSG – The Messenger’ has been successful in creating a new record on the occasion of film promotion program organised on 16th Jan, 2015 where the function was attended by about 1 lakh 50 thousand people. Mahesh Kaushik presented the certificates, medals & trophies in praise of establishing Indian books & Asian book records. Till this date the film has 1650 Million and the movie was released in 4000 PVR cinemas and the income generated will be spent for research on Thalassemia. I am sure the collective incomes of the 2 films namely ’MSG – The Messenger’ & ‘MSG 2 – The Messenger’ shall prove to be a boon for the patients suffering from Thalassemia. So the income procured from the movie shall be invested for the research to uproot the cause of Thalassemia.

One last thing, what are your expectations from your 2nd movie ‘MSG 2 – The Messenger’?

I think that just like ‘MSG – The Messenger’ even the 2nd movie ‘MSG 2 – The Messenger’ will be received with open arms & with extreme warmth by the global audiences and I am 100% sure that it will enjoy a rip roaringly run away success perhaps which was never before seen in the history of the world cinema.

So the masses will be in sync with the latest ”MSG 2 – The Messenger’ too, but will it have the same entertainingly preachy influence on the classy audiences remains to be seen.

More Censor Board members resign in support of chief Leela Samson

January 17, 2015 by Nasheman

Leela_Samson

New Delhi: Nine other members of the Censor Board have reportedly quit their posts following the resignation of the Board’s chief, Leela Samson.

One of the board members, Ira Bhaskar, had earlier on Friday revealed her plan to resign over the state of affairs in the running of the statutory body.

Bhaskar, a professor of cinema studies in Jawaharlal Nehru University, sent her resignation Friday night. “I have decided to resign. My resignation has to do with Leelaji’s decision to step down. We were working together and as a group. We had discussed about resigning earlier but we held on as she attempted to help the ministry in running the board.

“But things were clearly not in order. There was no meeting in the past one year though it was mandatory for board members to meet every three months. The last meeting was in January 2014. The censor board CEO said there were no funds to hold the meetings so the board is clearly not required,” Bhaskar told PTI on Friday.

Samson, who headed the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC), a statutory body under the information and broadcasting ministry, since 2011, resigned amid controversy surrounding the overnight clearance of controversial film “Messenger of God” featuring Dera Saccha Sauda chief Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh.

The censor board had referred the issue of clearance to “Messenger of God” to FCAT. The film, which was slated to hit the screens on Friday, is now releasing on Sunday.

Asked why she decided to quit, Samson did not specifically refer to the reported clearance to the film but cited alleged “interference, coercion and corruption of panel members and officers of the organisation who are appointed by the ministry.”

The protesters were holding black flags and shouting slogans.

“About 60 workers of INLD and INSO have been detained by Gurgaon Police in order to maintain law & order in the city and to avert clashes with the supporters of Dera Sacha Sauda, Sirsa who are collecting in large numbers at Leisure Valley Ground in Sector 29 Gurgaon for the planned premiere show of the movie “MSG – The Messenger of God”,” Police commissioner Navdeep Singh Virk’s office told reporters.

In all, nearly 500 INLD workers were detained by police in various police stations.

Later, 38 workers, including the party’s vice president Anantram Tanwar and others were booked at Sadar Police station. The rest of the workers were let off.
