Karan Johar, director
Cinema is a medium of expression...democracy allows the freedom of expression...is this only in theory??? And who stands accountable?? SAD.

Anupam Kher, actor
'Aarakshan' is a victim of today's dirty Politics. Movies don't have agendas, politician's do.:)Vishal Dadlani, music composer,

Make a film about an important socio-political issue. Get banned! This is why we can't make real films. I WANT TO BITCHSLAP OUR POLITICIANS!

A democracy, where we can only say what they allow us to say. Shame.

Suhel Seth, marketing and management guru
Aarakshan is a film for God's sake. We can't be paranoid and have creativity held hostage by lunatic politicians!!! - Gul Panag retweeted Seth's tweet

Madhur Bhandarkar, filmmaker
It is really sad that states are banning AARAKSHAN. Should we filmmakers from now on start making Cartoon films
