Excellent stuff again, NFP. But I wonder how many will get the layered references you have made by using political leaders and film characters to depict the personalities and idiosyncrasies of present-day people.

The last one was so true and so cruel that I can feel its bitterness in my mouth. Why we Pakistanis take Israeel as enemy but not China and India for they are doing the same crime. I suppose it's all political and selfishness and nothing to do with religion. Pak china friendship zindabad though you can kill muslims as much as you want

@Imran Although China does persecute the Xinyiang Muslims, the last guy "Kim Jong Klan" (actually Kim Jong Un) is the Premier of North Korea. I think you mistakenly assumed that he was Chinese judging by his name.

Putting paint on a canvas doesn't maketh a painting.
To the humble mind of atleast this one viewer the hotchpotch of color is without any coherent narrative.
It is the complexity of the human mind that makes it beautiful however as one misplaced beat is enough to render a symphony useless, one standout color can either can turn a blank sheet into a must sought master piece or reduce it to rubbish status.
The author waited till his very last act to reveal his "prejudice"
One could pardon and even over look this for there has never been and will never be a mind devoid of bias but as one grows with age, the wise one learns to curb it!
Unfortunately the same cannot be said about the esteemed author!
Gujrat happened and no denial however vociferous can ever undo it's scar......
..however if gujrat is worthy a white hood on its face then surely the author could have also made space to depict the burning destructive self and all consuming fire that is his "own"
it is not missed, that which was never valued but to lose interest in the "view" one cherished over time is a big loss indeed.......and that unfortunately is how this former fan feels for the author!
cheers...... or not...... *smiles*

@Khujalee @Rohit - Totally agree with youll. NFP has disappointed Indian fans for the second time. first on Shoeb Akhtar tweet and second on this article. I have refered NFp to lot of my friends. But now I am wondering what they may be thinking about my choice after these two episodes of NFP. I usually dont misjudge people. I But this time I have to admit I was wrong. From former fan of the author.

@Dilip Thorat - Learn to laugh at yourselves as well. It is okay for you guys to post comments in agreement when the articles mocks Pakistan but not when India is mentioned in such a way. Cry baby attitude does not seems to be limited to sports in India but I guess applies in general

@Rohit Who can afford to deny the fact that both Jinnah and Gandhi had everything to do with Gujrat. However, NFP has not been able to connect the dots fully - the interplay of the fears, indecisiveness and uncertainty of Gujrat, Punjab, and Russia are causing earth-shattering tremors across South Asia. They are just as traumatic in their timelessness as the Aryan invasions ever were.

@imran - In India, China and most of the non-Islamic lands, muslims kill non-muslims too but you are too prejudiced to see that ! Incidentally, Gujarat riots was started by muslims burning a train of Hindu pilgrims killing 57.
