THE FOUNTAINHEAD

Many a times I have tried to question Ayn Rand's philosophy of individualism.

Does comprimising a bit on your objective - signify 'maturity' OR 'burning your desires and spirit' ?
I am not going to answer that. (Though I have been asked a question on the same lines atleast 10 times when I praised/ recommended this book)

Recently , a certain 'HE' in India was criticised for his 'piece of work' by people who objected to a word or two in the lyrics of a song in his film . They threatened to protest and ban his work.

HE could have said
- "Come on , its only one word....I'll remove it " [ PRACTICAL APPROACH ]
- "Hey guys , let us settle it between us. I cant remove the word , but I can pay you well and I'll also give a public apology" [ POLITICAL APPROACH ]
- "You are useless. I am the best. The Centre is responsible for this . Bihar is still Number 1"
[ LALOO APPROACH ]

Well , HE said , " I am the producer and director , So dont watch my movie . I m pulling it off theaters !!"

And , MAQBUL FIDA HUSSAIN smiled.
(His 'piece of work' - Meenaxi - Tale of 3 Cities - still pure and untouched.)
