Dear Benedict and Jason,
Yes, you guys have a good point if there are people who agree with you.
How do you like the portrayal of a Goan in Bollywood films? Do we like
the image of a “Drunkard” or ABC (Ayah, Butler or Cook)?
Should we not respect the Freedom Fighters wishes? They may be right in
asking what they want; the government has recognised their act of courage.
Why did they sacrifice their lives to “Liberate” us from the shackles of
Portuguese? Some of them fought behind bars for the sake of Goans to be
free like doves.
Yes, music and soro is a part of our fabric – not to be depicted in
Bollywood films! If they are already abusing that then why encourage them.
