#NoBindiNoBusiness: Outrage over FabIndia's Diwali collection takes a new turn - While a lot of Twitter users spoke about how a bindi was part of their identity, others argued that wearing a bindi should be a personal choice.
BJP MP Anantkumar Hegde wrote an open letter to the CEO of CEAT Ltd claiming that an advertisement featuring Aamir Khan is causing "unrest among Hindus." He asked the company to address "issues" caused by Muslim festivals.
No barriers can lock out memory though the Fabindia episode reveals a discomfort with the notion of a shared past that does not offer much comfort for the future of Indian diversity
