Mumbai: The city based organization for the betterment of life of Mumbaikars – the MNS (NIM) or Mumbai Nationalism Society (Not Including Migrants) – has announced it will stage a morcha to ensure the movie ‘UP’ brought by Disney Pixar to India will be banned. A spokesperson for MNS said that the movie is actually an acronym for U.P. or Uttar Pradesh – a North Indian state that is trying to take over Maharashtra.

Society president Mr. Gaonkar said, “This propoganda film by North Indians in Mumbai is a sly move cloaked in the guise of entertainment for all ages. Non Maharashtra migrants have joined hands with western imperialists. This is the start of the decay of Mumbai society and it stinks – more than the landfills in Malad.”

A society worker who did not wish to be named, speaking exclusively to Utopia said,”The movie U.P is one of the reasons why non Mumbaikars are becoming cocky and gung-ho about their presence in the city. They must realize that they are here as visitors and guests and should behave as such. We are planning to start issuing visas for entry soon.”

Speaking on another issue close to the workers of the MNS(NIM), the secretary of the society Mr Khandekar said, “We are very tolerant people. The opening up of restaurants serving Chinese food, South Indian food and Punjabi food has always been a problem but we have allowed it. But of late we see some multiplexes offer vada pau as a snack but we find that they do not have any ‘combos’ of nimbu paani and vada pau, only colas and popcorn and even hot dogs and colas. It is clear they are trying to undermine the local snack food movement.”

In a startling development just before going to press, we have learned that the Institute for Development of Indianess Of Teenagers (also going by the acronym I.D.I.O.T.) has joined hands with the Mumbai Nationalism Society to oppose the screening of this film. The president of the insitute says that the movie UP is being promoted by Disney, an oppressive western cult envisioned on the lines of the East India Company.

Mr. Kuruvilla says, “Disney is aiming to brainwash our youth with stories of talking mice and ducks creating a false sense of reality. We all know that only Indian animals were evolved enough to talk and our historians have documented this in historical texts like the Jataka Tales. This latest venture by Disney using a senior citizen as the central character in the movie UP to tug at Indian heartstrings and preying on our respect for elders is their lowest move yet.”

Disney or Pixar films were not available for comments.

    Thank you Vedant. Be careful not to overdose on history notes, though !

  • Vedant said:

    Hey sk…y not write an article about national figures like Satendar here who is absolutely against propogation of communal distinctions and has also called you a few very kind and pleasant names…?

  • srikanthsk (author) said:

    I think Sh Satendar has referred to the communal elements & not really the writers at Utopia. Otherwise, we would have brutally deleted that comment, without any qualms.

  • Vedant said:

    Well…what he has said there sounds like he is gone bonkers or something… :P
