Superstar Amitabh Bachchan is angry over Sharmila Thackeray’s SMS, in which she said, “All those who had lost their lives while saving this city are Marathis. MNS workers are busy donating blood, helping police for rescue operations and lifting bodies.”
Sharmila is the wife of MNS leader Raj Thackeray and trying to politicize the whole matter.
It’s clear to the all Mumbaikar now that Raj Thackeray or his men slept well in their home, when Mumbai was facing terror attacks. Raj Thackeray was not even seen any of the hospitals of Mumbai.
Meanwhile, since Wednesday evening, SMS’s were making the rounds with inquiries of a certain Raj Thackeray who has been missing in action since Mumbai was seized by the terror attacks.
These SMS’s were not sent or forwarded in Mumbai only, but from all frontiers of the country.

Mumbaikars pls remind Thackeray next time he harrasses any comunity ,that there were members of all communites who gaeve their lives for Mumbai …
Never let him divide us again
Use our anguish against all that use our great city for their nasty causes …Terrorist from outside & the ones from within …
Dear Sir,
I fully agree with Mr. Bachchan’s anger.Raj Thackeray should be ashamed of himself. He did’nt utter even a single word over what happened in Mumbai. My question is who were those Marathis who got killed while saving people. Three top cops did’nt fire even a single bullet. Yes they died while performing their duty. Did any of the Marathis went inside Taj, Oberoi or for that matter Nariman House. Ulta Chor Kotwal Ko Daante.
What foolish things are we discussing…Even Amitabh slept in his house with a gun under his pillow….It’s not fare to put comments like these…to add to that I saw at least three MNS ambulaces helping the victims…I’m sure even the north ‘Indians’ must have contributed to the rescue efforts….Let’s not discuss these things…
hi
I was shoked to see what Bombay went thru!!! I am a punjabi and my mother’s family is from Bombay and I feel for that city.I have seen it grow,florish and glow ,all throughout my growing years and I was really sad to see its state on Nov26th’08!!!
I am also angry to sknow that the Thackarays were no where in sight during the riots ,either coming during or after the massacare of Beautiful Bombay!!! I guess they were too scared to come out ,lest they too may get shot or they are just wimps ,who attack us from behing closed doors!!
I wish the terrorists had their names/addresses in their list and done the job for us!!!
Shame on them!!
All those who assited in the rescue services were first Indians,then belonged to their state as uniform sees no colour ,caste ,creed or to which state it belongs to !!
The uniform was either of the Indian Police or Indian Army!!!
Thackrays are the only ones who I feel do not belong to India or to Bombay/maharashtra!!! They belong to this world called Fantasy Land ,where they are surrounded by Wimps like them and who suck up to them and have no backbones!!!
So Mr.Bachachan ,forget about these lot!! Its not worth wasting your time over people like them who have no scruplesor emotions!!! They just bask in their own(lost)glory!!!
I think all the Thackeray brigade, be it Raj or Uddhav should keep their views to themselves and should be banned speaking in public. How can Sharmila Thackeray say that all those who died in the blast were Marathis. It shows how much she knows about the blast or how little knowledge she possesses about the affected blast victims. All those who died in the blast or those who laid their lives for the country did not belong to one community but belonged to one country, India. They were all Indians. People like Sharmila Thackeray can only contribute to the misery or rather are source of misery.
Thats right..Raj and his men can only kill unarmed indians I an sure these killers would not have the guts to face the muslim killers
I fully agree with Big B.In that full episode where was Raj and his MSN guy’s. and from where his wife has come up. its shame to them that under such circumstances these guys want to take political mileage. NSG commandos who have been killed saving are all non marathi’s. but it is not the question of marathi’s, biharis etc, we all are Indians. I request all the Marathi’s to think sensibly of their strong culture and pride and than analyse Mr.Raj. We are all proud of the great Shivaji Maharaj , Holkar etc. they were great son’s of Maharastra and India unlike these petty politican of today and one example is this Raj Thackerey. We all are proud of Mumbai and we all unite to share this grief .
Raj has no business to do, and now when the attack was done on Mumbai City where was Raj & his Party Worker, why didnt he say take out terriosit, Bangladeshi from Mumbai. He only sees North Indian. Shame for MNS. Wake up and do something otherwise keep quite or leave Mumbai
The people who want to attain political power will stoop to any level to fullfil thier ambition. The people of Mumbai have eyes and ears and we have seen and heard what the MNS had done during the attack phase – nothing. All those who died are Marathis!!! what a laught, come on Sharmila’s, then what the big b say is right the MNS were sleeping while the attacks were taking place.
raj thackray and amitabh, both are idiots. The only problem we have to figure out is who leads the other.
this is ridiculous that politicians are using this sad and cowardly terririst attach for their political milage.
I do not understand now why this political twist.MNs should understand that it s not Mharashtra that was attacked and Maratis who got killed but India was attacked and Indians who got killed,When would Mrs Sharmila understand the ground reality ? or for that even Mr.Raj !! Whats the difference between you guys and LeT ?? leT killing by terror and MNS killing India and Indians by division.Grow up please gorw up silly Politicians.
First & fore most thing is that Amitabh is useless and he never did anything for the citizens of the country, whether it is for UP or MS or any other part of India. Everybody in India knows that he is a close friend of Amar Singh who is known politician as well as most corrupt face among the politicians, still, the man like Amitabh having friendship with him.
I really don’t understand what for he needs the support of Amar Singh a character less man, even after staying in Safe & secured place like Mumbai.
As regards, Sharmila Thackeray SMS, there is nothing to hype on it, since, majority of martyrs were Marathi’s and MNS did their best for the people who are injured etc by donating blood & providing aids to victims family.
Did anybody hear that Amitabh & Amar Singh have contributed for martyrs or injured people . “The answer is no”.
So, in this case, he doesn’t have any right to jump in & give the political glance to Sharmila’s SMS.
Incase, he doesn’t like the attitude of MNS leaders, then, he can choose such a place in India where MNS interference will not be there.
I request you to publish this message as my personal view about Amitabh.
Thanks …Avnish – Navi Mumbai
Did anyone seriously expect Raj Thakrey to be miles within the radius of trouble??!I think Marthi Manoos is about to show him the boot!!!
when the mumbai was facing the terror attacks……at that moment Raj thakrey was packed in his bunglow with his family and now they are saying that “MNS workers are busy donating blood and helping police for rescue operations and lifting bodies”.
But the fact is when their was cross firing between the brave soldier and coward terrorist at that moment all MNS worker were sleeping at their home…..just shamme on Raj thakrey…..n his wife….they are still plying the shameful politics….
SHAME ON RAJ THACKREY AND HIS WIFE…….
♫ Where was Raj Thakrey ? Tell him that 200 NSG commandos from Delhi (all North Indians)were being sent 2 fight the terrorists. So that he could sleep Peacefully…………..
If the above report is true then certainly it is painful, that too in this our of grief. At one hand persons who laid down their lives in protecting innocent lives, showed thier bravery and taught the nation to realize our national duties and be united, irrespective of our caste,creed,religion and specially region but on the other hand these politicians(all of them) are disturbing them to sleep in peace.
Did Major Sandeep Unninkrishnan or Hawaldar Gajendra Singh think twice before entering in their respective operational sites, that they would loose their lives in protecting Marathi Assests?
God knows when these politicians will stop doing these scraps, sit on one table, plan to modernise 19th century Police Laws to the 21st century needs, equip and train them as per the modern day challenges, integrate our other security agencies and assure people that they are secure in their own houses.
I expect a versatile personalities like Mr.Bachchan, Mr.Khans to come at one table and make these politicians(most of their friends like Amar Singhs and Thackerys)their duties and comment like a responsible identities.
As for as the comment of AB is concirn is absolutely fine b’cos if an indian who thinks as a marathi than indian its shame,and this is the reason why, other people(other thatn indian) always take advantage of it.we r nt unite in ourselves and expect for growth which is nt possible it can be possible only when we put our efforts collectively in unity then onely a day we will be at sun.the most importantaly there should be a rule…at list no pary or any indivisual should make things like terror attack as an opportunity to take an advantage for thier benfit.its a pity on the though of ms thakrey…,we should salute our heros of this operation and try to be in a part of the opposit circumstance of est of the families the heros dead in the battal….
Yes, probably Raj Thackeray is the only man who can prevent any such attack at Mumbai. By his poisonous speech, he will definitely bring PIECE to the city and Maharashtra.
Instead of pacifying Raj’s compassion, what Sharmila is doing by sending such msg to the society and the nation ?
Shame on this fragmenting politics.
All the Thackeray are bloody trying to do dirty politics only. No one came out to save Mumbaikar during three days when Mumbai was facing terror attacks. They should understand their capabilities when local police was not able to handle the situation and Commandos came down to different part of the country while Bloody Raj Thackeray was sleeping in Commandos safe gaurd. He should come out to do something for Marathis instead of doing nonsense politics. Raj Thackeray does not has any political base so he is seeking his ground and getting involved in bullshit matters.
Indian Govt should kill him. He is also terrorist in another form of Terror.
From an Indian.
It is better not to talk about Raj and co. I feel they are all mad and should be send to mental hospitals. It is my request to Mumbaikars’ to punished them with ballot.
This is bullshit. What did Amitabh Bachcan and his famed SP workers do.
MNS workers did a lot of work.
Ask Sharmila Thackeray, where was her brave husband Raj Thackeray hiding after putting all the terrorists in place with bag and baggage. He played the character of Jai Chand and called these terrorists to help him in his mission “Marathis will stay in Maharashtra” and as claimed by Jhansi ki raani Sharmila Thackeray that only Marathis died during the operation, it is proved that the Marathis are incapable of rescuing themselves and died in the operation – those who can not save their lives how they can save the lives of others. If she has little shame and little respect for the country and those who sacrificed their lives then she should shut up and stop politicising this issue.
Needless to say that the 26/11 incident in Mumbai is very tragic and all responsible for this tragedy must be punished.
Should not the investigation turn in the basic direction- focussing who is the beneficiary from this attack , and who is presently taking advantage of this attack. An investigation in this direction will certainly help bring out the truth and conspiracy.
Hi,
I just wanna say People like Raj Thackeray are bigger terrorists.It is just a request to all the people of Maharashtra that please make sure people like him don’t win in elections.
As far as Mr. Thackeray is concerned I would just like to say when a terrorist shoots at our people then the bullet doesn’t discriminate between a Marathi or a Bihari.It is shot at us because we are Indians.
Other than fanning linguistic passions and trying to divide the country, attacking BIG B, and creating needless heartbreak to him, what else is Raj Thackeray’s claim to fame. Where is he and his clan in the last one week? He is a creature who is an insult to humanity. If he is really the champion of the Maharashtrian cause, he and his supporters shud have been on the streets on those 3 fateful nights, trying to mobilise efforts to shift the people to the hospital and trying to ensure that the citizens reach their homes safely. A Tiger will always be a Tiger and a Mouse will never fake to be a Tiger. Raj Thackeray is a mouse who is not fit to live inside a gutter also.
a number of people are not visible for different reasons..
1. MNS chief Raj Thackeray and his army .Where were they when the terrorists were being fought by the NSG commandos.
Why are they trying to stoop so low as to show people that the three brave police officers killed were “Marathi” ?
Why didn’t MNS cadres come and engage the terrorists ?
They are only good at breaking taxi and shop windows.
2. Amar singh .. Must have been a shock to see terrorists openly shooting and killing . This cannot be explained away as a hindu terror plot. Its time we ignored the religious identities of all perpetrators of these heinous crimes and give them the punishment they deserve.A terrorist by whatever name called ,has no religion.
I totally agree with Mr. Bachchan. The lady is politicizing the hole issue. With people like these the core issue is lost.
I have the same Question…Where as Raj Thackeray when Mumbai was burning??? Is not Terrorism the major issue right now? rather than Maharashtra for Marathis???
Its better for all of us if Raj Thackeray lives in his cocoon rather than come out of it and make useless demands once in a while.
Mr. Bachchan is totally right. Blog on Mr. Bachchan. The world needs more people like you.
God bless you.
Why are these people still clamoring about who is a marathi or who is a bihari? are the not all indians? there is no doubt (if we go by regions), that brave marathi souls too laid down their lives in making mumbai safe, but the comments of mrs. sharmila thackrey are uncalled for and show her lack of knowledge. it is another fact that a person called raj thackrey did not have the guts to come out and assist those in need at the hour of need.
the sms was rediculous and without any meaning where the politicans wanna think only about themseleves and not the other common people. i support Mr Bachcan particular for this isssue of the sms
The SMS was sent in response to caustic emails & SMS’s circulating against Raj Thackeray & Maharashtrian people during Mumbai attacks..
These SMS’s were like: Where is Raj Thackeray hiding now & where is the Marathi Manoos? The NSG team has North Indians, why should they fight for Mumbai now?
I believe, the MNS response to those SMS’s was :
1. Regarding where is the Marathi Manoos: All the cops who died were Marathi
2. Regarding where is Raj Thackeray: He got MNS to organize blood donation camps & blah.. blah blah.
But when you remove the context (that this SMS was in response to the earlier caustic SMS’s), & alter some words(Instead of the actual “All policemen killed”, you put “All those killed”), you can show it in very poorlight.
I guess Raj Thackeray is losing the propaganda battle
And because he is not talking to Hindia/English channels, they get to twist his words more heavily, coz he is only talking to Marathi papers which only Maharashtrians read
