    He realised very late that he cannot take decisions according to his conscience. How long anyone can always be Nagpur mouthpiece? Only habitual liers can live them forever. To cover one false story you need to concoct unending lies.

    Anupam Kher was assigned the agenda to discredit UPA, through his own acting skills. Working within political parties, it is fine, as long as the discrediting part is implemented with character assassination with faked and bogus evidences. Entire BJP propaganda post silence of Vajpayee due to health reasons, was concocting bogus stories. It can work for a while.

    Today people have started recognizing the fact that, they were taken for a ride. Their silence and continued support to Modi led BJP is just going to make the things worse not only for themselves but to the entire country.

    Guys like Anupam Kher or Urjit Patel are simply facing the inevitable fate, that will recorded in history as their own incompetence and immaturity.

    something is fishy, may be after he played role of MANMOHAN SINGH in his new movie, he has realized the true value of Mr.Manmohan singh, who is the real creator of VIBRANT INDIA ECONOMY in 1990'S when he was the finance minister.

    Mr. Kher after acting in " The Accidental Prime Minister" praised Dr. Manmohan Singh. He realized lately that what MMS did was right and what AK did earlier by criticizing him was not correct . May be AK is penalized for his praise, as the FTII chairman post was given to him after controversy of Gajendra Chauhan. So he found a easy route of busy schedule . Next will be Kiran Kher
