While I have no problem with that guy's life getting settled for whatever role he played, but yes, the role of cinema can be certainly more positive in removing the stigmas attached to the disabilities.
Are there individuals and organizations willing to write a collective letter to all the associations dealing with film industry such as Film Federation of India and producers in particular, to initiate a dialogue so that a voluntary code can be adopted which will govern the depicting of disability in Bollywood? Certainly things are not going to change unless we actively take part in changing them. Rather than just sitting here and exchanging our views, why not lets take a collective effort to at least get that message across? Please note, I have not yet seen the movie, and I don't know the moto behind this scene. But whatever be the moto, I am of the firm opinion that we must write to the producers and these associations.
