我演電影時,在不同的角色中,體驗過不同的人生。還有另一種人生,就是我自己的人生:卸去演員的身份,作爲一個人,以我的方式存在。生活中,思緒如風般吹拂著我的腦海。我讀報紙、看新聞、與朋友閒聊、和陌生人交談,總有一些事觸動我的心弦。
一方面,印度在崛起,蒸蒸日上,作爲一個印度人,我感到高興和自豪。但是,在社會中還有很多令人心酸的事實,我們卻對此熟視無睹。這些苦難,卻讓我深感不安,感到哀傷。有時我會想,幹嘛要去思考這些與我無關的事情呢?我的生活幸福美滿,別人的苦難與我何干呢?但是它確有干係。因爲我也是這個社會中的一份子。一連串的事情把你我和社會的每一個人都聯繫在一起,一呼一吸中,體會心中的共鳴。
如果甘地、提拉克、鮑斯、尼赫魯、智者阿扎德仍然在世,我們有何顏面去面對他們。我們的先人懷抱夢想,爲自由而奮鬥,就是爲了建立一個像現在這樣的印度嗎?所以,我在這裡,希望聽到、學到些什麼,希望和你們有所交流,發現問題的根源,看到事情的真相。
我想討論一些關係印度民生的話題,不責難任何人,不中傷任何人,也不制約任何人。人人都說,傷害我們的人近在咫尺,或許我們都有責任。現在,與我一起踏上這段旅程吧。一起去尋找、去發現、去學習、去分享,一起去揭開這些難題的謎底。
我無心激化矛盾,只爲能改變這個時代。無論是誰的心中,只要有星星之火,必將成燎原之勢。(印壇字幕組翻譯)

Ep01:殘殺女嬰 2012年5月6日
女孩很珍貴:殘殺女嬰。從出生前開始大規模殘殺女孩已經導致了嚴重印度人口性別失衡和其他一系列社會問題……
E p02:兒童性侵害 2012年5月13日
打破沉默:高達53%的孩子,也就是兩人中就有一人是性侵害的受害人。施暴者的往往是備受信賴的人,而作案地點就在家中。家長務必警惕和關注孩子的各種求助信號,同時,我們也需要強有力的完善的保護兒童免受性侵害的法律。【廣告時間:更多華語世界資訊,敬請關注蕭芳芳護苗基金會http://www.ecsaf.org】
Ep03:盛大的印度婚禮 2012年5月20日
很多人都期待一個奢華的婚禮,但是印度的現狀是,昂貴的婚禮儀式和沉重的嫁妝負擔不僅導致新人生活悲慘,也破壞了父母的家庭。婚禮的概念已經變成一種交易,完全不在乎人或者家庭關係的價值。這是可以改變的,只要女方和他的家人對於嫁妝說不,堅持簡單的婚禮儀式,恢復婚姻紐帶的神聖性。 本期阿米爾提出的簡訊問題是,」你認爲我國今天的婚事是否已成爲商業交易?「
Ep04:醫療制度需要治療否? 2012年5月27日
人民相信醫療從業人員,相信他們有足夠的知識和設備做我們的健康衛士。但是,如果這知識被邪惡利用,那麼醫療就成爲了噩夢。儘管現在醫生隊伍中充滿了唯利是圖者,很多醫院也只想著利用病人來賺錢,還有有很多遵從希波克拉底誓言的醫生,他們在捍衛這個神聖的職業。
Ep05:Is Love a Crime? - 3rd June 2012
The simple act offalling in love opens up a world of emotions and reactions which sometimes culminate in crime -- the death of the couple. Even if they escape death, lovers who go against religious and community barriers still have to face harassment and censure from society and, due to this pressure, rejection from their families.
Ep06:Persons with Disabilities - We Can Fly!
People with disabilities have the same zeal and appreciation for life as the rest of us do. But they often get shunned, doubted, mocked and insulted. Access to public places and buildings is restricted and doors are closed for schooling and employment. India does not appear to be mature enough and understanding enough to recognise people with disabilities for what they are -- people.
Ep07:Domestic Violence -- Danger At Home
For countless women, entering married life often means the beginning of a stressful, violent existence. Beating one's wife seems to be ingrained in many men's mindsets as the appropriate behaviour for a strong male, but the consequences are misery for the wife and children, and often a broken, unhappy home. The concept of domestic violence is based on the notion of patriarchy, which needs to be converted into equality.
Ep08:Toxic Food - Poison On Our Plate?
For decades our food and water have been contaminated by powerful, harmful pesticides which have been promoted as necessary for better agricultural output. But the reality is that we don't need pesticides for better yield, and their use is not only deadly for health but results in expensive farming methods. The solution is to adopt organic farming, which is possible and profitable, as the state of Sikkim has shown.
Ep09:Alcohol Abuse - Think Before You Drink
Alcohol consumption is associated with having fun and enjoying life. But excessive, irresponsible drinking takes away that very life itself. Many alcohol addicts have climbed back to normal life, proving that it is possible to live happily without alcohol. Help for alcoholics is available, free, at Alcoholics Anonymous.
Ep10:Untouchability - Dignity for All
For a country which has been independent for 65 years, it is a matter of shame that we have not yet shaken off the tyranny of caste-based discrimination. Countless people have to live in degrading conditions, children are unable to go to school, employment avenues are closed, and even education does not open bigoted minds.
Ep11:Old Age -- Sunset Years, Sunshine Life
Our parents are the ones who have brought us up and made us what we are. At least out of consideration for that much, we should be good and kind towards them. But countless people all over India don't think so, going by the numbers of abandoned old people taken in at old age homes. Then there are some older people who take matters into their own hands -- be it romance or adventure sport.
