Dangal or No Dangal - But just don't fool yourself!

It's the second conversation in one week, where I had the same response for movie Dangal. " Oh, You know I am boycotting Aamir Khan's movies. So I am not watching Dangal in theater. Will watch at home on TV when I get it online" . ( If you want to know background of why they said so, you can check  http://saritahere.blogspot.com/2015/11/whats-wrong-with-aamir-khan-i-guess.html   ) And I was simply awed by the kind of stereotyped folks I was surrounded with.

I have always stayed away from discussing my interests with people around me. My attitude has always been to update them with my decision, and not to involve in decision making as much; whether friends or family. When I was looking for a jeep, I still had friends pick up the topic and be like; "Why Jeep?", "No Mileage", "High Maintenance", "Very Rough", "For same price, you will get a better car"..etc..etc..
