India’s number one movie star has said it. Do you think that he would really do that or just a publicity stunt?

This strong show of support for Pepsi has come from Bollywood’s top actor, Shahrukh Khan (SRK). SRK is unhappy that many people in India are now trying to ban Pepsi and Coke over the pesticide issue.

Yeah! Cause the pesticide level in US is controlled. Let me see him give one to his child and then I will drink it as well…

Nice idea. Those stars who are supporting Pepsi and Coke should do it publicly- give the colas to their children.

Did I read it correctly – he compared Pepsi to Mothers Milk?? Pepsi is a sugary concoction with NO benefits. Milk has numerous benefits but I can see that it didn’t work on SRK.

What a moron!

Bans on Coke, Pepsi bad for India’s image-industry – Indian industry lobby groups expressed concern on Thursday over bans imposed by several states on sales of drinks made by Coca-Cola and Pepsi, saying they would damage the country’s image overseas as a place to do business.

Indian Public always make me crack, listen to this … Cans of Coca-Cola were poured down the throats of donkeys in one protest this weekend, while activists from regional political parties smashed cola bottles made by both companies and attacked several shops in Delhi where the drinks were on sale. Protesters in Calcutta burned bottles of Coca-Cola. – source

Two Years Back – A local affiliate of the Coca-Cola Company suspended production at its Perumatty plant, in Kerala, in response to an order by the provincial government. Local villagers opposed the plant on the ground that it was depleting the water table. The plant consumed 110,000 gallons of water a day and accounted for less than 2 percent of Coca-Cola’s production in India.

Pesticide Controversy Triggers back Coconut Sales

With Kerala’s ruling Left Democratic Front (LDF) urging Chief Minister V S Achuthanandan to immediately ban the sale of Coke and Pepsi in the state, the humble tender coconut may finally get its due.

Despite the healthy, nourishing tender coconut being available in plenty in the state, sales have been low. Now, with the controversy over the pesticide content in aerated soft drinks from Pepsi and Coca-Cola creating a furore again, the government is going to redouble efforts to market the fruit.

“We have already decided that this is the best time to vigorously promote tender coconut water. I am calling a meeting of officials of the Coconut Development Board. I also wish to bring in the local self-government ministry to promote tender coconuts,” said state Agriculture Minister Mullakkara Ratnakaran.
