Aamir Khan recently visited Bihar’s Gehlaur village and had promised that villagers and ‘Mountain Man’ Dashrath Manjhi’s family that the first episode would be dedicated to him.
But when the first episode was eventually aired last weekend, there was a uproar of protest in the village as the show had nothing related to Manjhi.
“Aamir Khan visited us on February 25 and told us that the first episode of his serial was dedicated to Dashrath Manjhi. We were all glued to the television in the community hall in our village at 10 am” said a villager.
“We were sorely disappointed when the episode aired was about something else. Why did he visit us with the promise that the episode would be about our village hero?” the villager added.
When asked about the protests in the village, the CEO of Star India, Uday Shankar said there was never any plan to film an episode on Dashrath Manjhi.
“There was never any plan of an episode on Dashrath Manjhi this season. We ended season one of ‘Satyamev Jayate’ with an episode on Dashrath Manjhi. And before we commenced the new season, we felt it would be a good idea to pay a tribute to his memory and the triumph of the human spirit that he signifies. Hence, Aamir’s trip to Gelhaur.”
thats kinda betrayal or more alike public stunt …….

That was a promotional thing and also good to realive the memory of mountain man among public,this is the media created controversy that first episode will be of mountain man,why Aamir need to talk the same topic in new episode while he wrapped the first season with story of mountain man.i don’t think Aamir given any wrong commitment to villagers there. But indicine what about SMJ episode 1 post, i think Aamir needs to do a show with Karan so that you can post positive about SMJ rather than baseless negative articles.
But the topic discussed on first episode was more important than this topic.
Uneducated villagers are more concerned about their village issue instead of national issue which was discussed on first episode
Aamir is a complete show off.. N so is the show.. But still show has done good foh ppl so his selfishness might b neglected
@Damnnn ‘Zor ka jhatka’ and ‘kya aap panchvi pass se tez hai’ effect is still on.lol
