Hardly our Chote Nawab would have thought that his hunting adventure few years back, would pose as a problem in future.

Recently Saif Ali Khan was awarded with Padma Shri. However his achievement was not appreciated by certain people in Rajasthan. It is reported that the Bishnoi community and wildlife activists are quite angry for honouring Saif with such prestigious award.

Remember the ‘Hum Saath Saath Hain’ days? The film’s cast including Saif and Salman entered the bad books of Jodhpur for alleged killings of black bucks during the shooting. Now the people of the state who still sentimentally harbours the incident said to be approaching the Union government to take back Saif’s Award. Besides, the Bishnoi Tiger Vanyajeev Evam Paryavaran Sansthan (BTVPS) said that they will soon appeal to the President and the Prime Minister protesting against the decision. People for Animals have also expressed similar agitation.

According to them, the decision is hurting the dignity of the award as well as the spirit of the other deserving recipients.

Hmmm, a case of old wounds….
