Anupam appreciates the great Gandhian soldier

MUMBAI: Anupam Kher is happy that Anna Hazare won his fight to bring the government around to his views on stringent anti-graft legislation.

“This is the greatest victory for Indian democracy since independence,” said Kher in excitement.
“But this is just the beginning. I am ready to carry on the fight as one of Anna Saab’s soldiers even if it requires me to cancel my other commitments.”

Reportedly, following a television programme in which the actor said the Constitution needs to be amended in the context of social activist Anna Hazare’s anti-corruption movement, the next day, members of the Republican Party of India pelted stones at his Juhu home in Mumbai, saying he had said the Constitution “should be thrown out of the window” on television.

Then Anupam Kher said,”they targeted me as they wanted a scapegoat. But let me tell you, I am not a scapegoat, I’m a lion.”
