Senior Indian politician Shashi Tharoor has criticized the Modi government’s anti-Muslim narrative. In an interview, Shashi Tharoor compared the new and old India by referring to the Bollywood film Amar Akbar Anthony and said that in the past, love and harmony were promoted through entertainment. He said that films like Amar Akbar Anthony used to get tax exemptions so that the ticket prices were also low and people would watch such films with enthusiasm. Now the times have changed and such films are being promoted through tax exemptions that show hatred against Muslims. Shashi Tharoor described this behavior as a reflection of a major change in narrative and values.
