Is there trouble brewing in paradise? Samajwadi Party (SP) chief Mulayam Singh Yadav's daughter-in-law Aparna (the wife of his second son Prateek, Akhilesh Yadav's half-brother) has been making statements that sound as if the Bharatiya Janata Party is speaking through her. On her Facebook page, Aparna commented on the intolerance debate. "It is now clear that Aamir Khan is nothing more than an actor," she said, "He acted in such patriotic films as Mangal Pandey: The Rising and Rang De Basanti, but could not teach his wife patriotism." This is quite in contrast with the way the SP has been backing the actor.
