The animation film "Sita Sings The Blues" which has been produced by Nina Paley and has been made available on internet freely under Creative Commons License is derogatory and extremely insult to Hindu culture, its role models and Ramayana which is a religious book of Hindus.

The film attempts to misrepresent the events and characters of Ramayana in most derogatory manner through its explicit graphics, audio and dialogues.

Paley's film is offensive. She has right to make a film on her divorce, but why make offense to the sacred Ramayana? Why portray Sri Rama so terribly? Westerners do not understand. They see a king as being able to do anything, so why did Rama send Sita away. But Rama had to uphold Vedic injunctions, he had no choice. He incarnated in order to portray ideal, dutiful king, and to have Sita be sent away with Luv and Kush is part of the pastime. Love in separation! We see it with the pastimes of Sri Krishna + Radha. Love in separation is highest. Sita + Rama display this separation pastime. Westerners are being misinformed + made to think unfavorably on India culture, religion, by Paley's film.

The controversy when a Danish newspaper published a cartoon of Prophet Mohammed culminated with large-scale violence and arson all over the world.In Hyderabad hindus were attacked senselessly and their properties destroyed for that reason. Till now we Hindus were always labelled as TOLERANT. The day is not far when we will be labelled as ENNUCHS by the world. First MF Hussain.Now Nina Paley. STOP TESTNG THE PATIENCE OF HINDUS. ENOGH IS ENOUGH!!!!!

Hindus situation here between polititians and media(DC) misrepresenting the events and characters of Ramayana in most derogatory manner not only ramayana but also our Gods is as in "Between the devil and deep sea". We need to wake up from this situation, need to unite and fight.

I think solution to issue is vey simple.
If now any producer, director, painter, actors, NEWS CHANNEL, NEWS PAPER, POLITICIAN, AND SO ON we found doing any Any Anti-Hindu acts or insulting Hinduism.
THEN They must be punished by each Hindu of world by all possible means (no killing or injury i mean to say) for such acts.
Unless he realize his mistake.
In fact all Muslim and Christan lobby is promotingthis acts.
The one who is producig they are not the real face behind this acts
THE REMEDY IS ONLY ONE - ANY ONE WHO IS FOUND GUILTY - THEN IT IS A DUTY OF EACH HINDU IN THOS WORLD TO PUNISH THE CULPRIT BY ANY MEANS
LET THEM GET THEIR KARMA KA FAL
TIT FOR TAT - IS QUICK SOLUTION TO ISSUE.

Freedom of expression has been taken granted
as to express against Hindus only. We Hindus
neglect because we put our all efforts in building
the nation.........and not in rubish matters.

Freedom of expression does not mean letting ones imajination run wild. Firstly on a cursery glance saw that knowledge of the epic is not there! Sita of the Ramayana was in no way concerned with the Babri Masjid its construction or demolition! We Hindus have a tremendous respect for this text as it teaches us what is ideally correct. Ravana was a learned person, he pleased Shiva by playing on a veena made of the nerves after cutting off his head and not his intestines. We respect that aspect of Ravana and it is only his ego and lust which caused his downfall. Sita did not have to sing away the blues. She taught us how to be assertive. She was a single parent. This is offensive !
