While VHP leaders have been demanding that all roads and monuments named after Mughal emperors be re-christened, Bollywood actor Rishi Kapoor has now come out all guns blazing--demanding that all assets named after Gandhis be changed.
'Baap ka maal samajh rakha tha kya?' Kapoor asks in one of his tweets.
Change Gandhi family assets named by Congress.Bandra/Worli Sea Link to Lata Mangeshkar or JRD Tata link road. Baap ka maal samjh rakha tha ?

Lashing out at Gandhi family members especially, Kapoor says Gandhi family assets named by Congress should be changed.
In a series of tweets late last night, Kapoor questioned naming of assets after Rajiv Gandhi and Indira Gandhi.
If roads in Delhi can be changed why not Congress assets/property ke naam? Was in Chandigarh wahan bhi Rajeev Gandhi assets? Socho? Why?

We must name important assets of the country who have contributed to society. Har cheez Gandhi ke naam? I don't agree. Sochna log!

Kapoor had some suggestions too.
He wants Film City in Mumbai, situated near Sanjay Gandhi National Park, to be named after Dilip Kumar, Dev Anand, Amitabh Bachchan or Ashok Kumar.
Film City should be named Dilip Kumar,Dev Anand,Ashok Kumar ya Amitabh Bachchan ke naam? Rajeev Gandhi udyog Kya hota hai? Socho doston!

He gives more suggestions for his 1.07 million followers on Twitter to think about.
Imagine Mohamad Rafi Mukesh Manna Dey Kishore Kumar venues on their name like in our country. Just a suggestion

The actor also had name suggestions for Indira Gandhi International Airport--"Why not Mahatma Gandhi or Bhagat Singh Ambedkar or on my name Rishi Kapoor?" he asked.
Why Indira G airport International ? Why not Mahatma Gandhi or Bhagat Singh Ambedkar or on my name Rishi Kapoor. As superficial! What say?

He tweeted saying that Raj Kapoor has made India proud and has done more than any politician.
Raj Kapoor has made India proud over the years all over even after his death. Certainly more than What has been perceived by politics.
