http://entertainment.oneindia.in/bollywood/news/2010/golmaal-3-legal-notice-171110.htmlThis is perhaps the most biased story of all that I have seen so far covering TISA petition. Media I always thought was an impartial platform with a balanced view. This post compels me to think twice! A couple of lines from the article-“The trailers of the movie also showed the character of Shreyas Talpade […]
TISA was very happy to read this comment from an American Speech therapist on our on line petition: As the executive director of the American Institute for Stuttering in New York City and a speech therapist who helps those who stutter I find this film offensive. We have devoted our lives to help those who […]
A petition filed in the High Court. The plea is laughed at, brushed off and is little supported by the general public. The petitioner is firm in his beliefs and is not deteriorated by such a response. He sees this as an opportunity to create awareness about his problem. He reaches out to people and […]
In the first week of November 2010, we shared our views and the grounds of our petition, with the leading media houses. But nothing ever surfaced. Now suddenly the news is all over and it shares the view point of the makers of Golmaal 3. Veiled doubts have been raised about our motives and seriousness. […]
Hi, this is my Project-9 at ToastMasters, for which it was adjudged the Best Prepared Speech.
That an association of “normal” people is livid and is planning to slam TISA with a law-suit: “This upstart of TISA is violating our inalienable human right to laugh at stammerers and mute people! What do they mean? If we cant laugh at stammerers, mute, blind, deaf people, what is left to laugh at??” A […]
Friends- I had been feeling something in my guts for sometime- and today I found a write up about it: “Why Bollywood produces the most films and the least awards.“Found it quite interesting.

I have two dogs and I love them. So, I was suitably impressed by the opening lines in Golmaal 3 (see the pic above): “The dog used in one of the sequences in the film is a dummy and no harm was done to the real dog.” How thoughtful! Well, this dog sequence lasted hardly […]

Rohit Shetty is back again with the third version of his Golmaal series. The promos did give a clear indication that it would again be that “forget-your-brain-at-home” kind of movie. But are the audience that stupid? Or is the Director stupid? Golmaal 3 is a clumsy effort of making people laugh… Sheer waste of money […]
Here are some random thoughts on advocacy, especially self advocacy ie. being advocates for our own issues. 1. You must have an opinion. There may be no law supporting it at the moment BUT, your constitution gives you a RIGHT to have an opinion. And this opinion should be well considered and firm- not swayed […]
