Aamir Khan’s popular television show managed to make domestic violence a trending topic for much of the day. Sophie Choudry tweeted: ‘When will men stop believing they own women? Domestic violence not only hurts physically, it kills self-worth too. Women must not accept this!’ Aditi Chawla added: ‘Behind closed doors of homes all across our country, people are being tortured, beaten and killed.’ Purba Ray came up with this: I regularly beat my husband. But only in a game of Scrabble.’ According to Rofl Indian, ‘Aamir Khan should have brought Meira Kumar and scolded her for always smiling meekly in reaction to domestic violence.’ And from AmreekanDesi: ‘Ironical that on a day Aamir Khan is talking about domestic violence, my wife made me clean all the fans in the house.’
