Aamir spoke at the event saying, "If the natural aesthetics of Aarey is disturbed due to the DP, it is a cause of concern. The Aarey milk colony should not be disturbed. Government should involve citizens in the development plan and seek their views to plan the future of Mumbai. If this had been done before, there would have been no need to hold such meetings."

Speaking about the presence of film industry celebrities at the meeting, Raj Thackeray said, "Film industry bigwigs attended this meeting because of their love and concern for the city and are connected to social causes. Salman Khan is involved in social work, through his Being Human Foundation, while Aamir Khan raises social issues through his TV programme."

He further added, "Javed Akhtar has given his MP fund of Rs. 25 crore for cleaning of drains while Riteish Deshmukh was present as an architect and not as an actor."

Well, it is nice to see the two most powerful sectors, the political and the film industry joining their hand together for a better city, there by a better country.
