The act, I mean the Gere and Shipa scene, was a shameful one especially when veiwed from the Indian perspective. We Indians have left some things for the confines of the couples' bedroom. And kissing is one such act. To a certain extent, kissing (minus the aplob exhibited in the scene under question) between a husband and a wife can be held permssible even in public but certinly not between strangers or even friends of the opposite sex. Of late we have started shooting kissing scenes in the Indian films. But this too, I feel, ought to be banned. Gere and Shilpa, specially the former needs to remember the old proverb: 'In Rome live as the Romans do' and like wise, In India,'live and behave as the Indians do'.

I didn't realize Indian culture was so archaic.

We certainly are a land of hypocrites. On the one hand we denounce public display of affection and on the other we lap up the misdemeanours of the characters of our tele-serials where multi-partners are the call of the day. Should not these directors/producers also be pulled up by the courts for 'spoiling' the morals of our children by inculcating in them a false sense of family values?

This complaint is a moronic waste of space and time. Anyone who supports it is an imbecile.

Too funny ... the prosecutor was apparently named Poonam ... LOL If they hated the kiss they would have gone nuts over the gerbils.

it's even funnier than the Sheryl Crowe toilet paper green lecture or John McCain announcing he is running for president again...
