{M:H:O} Shocking news : M F Hussain - Returns to India !!!!!
When i heard that Indian government is planning for a focused strategy to bring M F Hussain back.My immediate thought was -
Does the Home ministry has nothing else to do?
Leaving all the current and critical issues including the latest West bengal crisis , home ministry is very keen to bring Hussain , just because the 94-year-old Hussain, who has been living in exile for the last few years, wants to come back to India and had recently made an emotional appeal in this regard.
When a person who has no regard or respect for emotions of more than half the people of this country why should we be concerned of this man who created troubles for himself ?
When a painting of Muslim God was published in a danish newspaper ,the Muslim community issued fatwas against it and we want him back in the country even if he hurt emotions and feelings of millions of Indians.
The man is a genius maybe but after looking at Maa Durga sketched as naked and having sexual union with a tiger. I think he is demented one. Freedom of expression does not mean freedom to hurt and disrespect to other's feelings.
What should i call this - favoritism to a VIP and sense of secularism ?
Just as the painter cannot be forced to paint something, likewise, the public shouldn't be forced to accept an offense. Art should not be thought-provoking, not insulting.
Creativity in art should not be the demolition of others' emotional sentiments. Artists can be genius in their own right. Their madness can not infringe on others' peace.Humanity comes before art. Human expression, expands the horizons of artistic expressions. Artistic creations should not sow seeds of discord which are against public interests.
Does we really need this man in our country , look at the images and decide.
Now look at this what he was actually trying to paint but wan't able to do so :-
Even 5th Standard kid knows how to portray a lion , elephant and a lady , people who understand the so called drawings call it as "Modern Art", Are we so mean that we have nothing else to portray other than the god and goddess. Shame for the people who think so and also who thinks he is a great artist. If "such" Art is artists way of expression (Freedom of expression ) , people who are hurt with this, have another way of expressing anger , that also comes in Freedom of expression . So best thing will be to let him allow to come to India and prosecute.
Note : I am not against any religion but i don't want anyone to exploit any other religious sentiments. Not everyone can be good artist , it really require skill and i am damn sure he is not the Tara Zameen Par like Ishan Awasthi.
Regards
Shail
