However, they were hurt that there were humans protesting against the film for being equated with dogs in its title. "Aren't we man's best friend?" they wondered. "Aren't we more loyal to them than they are to each other? So how come they take offense to the film's innocuous title and file a defamation case against an actor and a music composer without having the common sense to realise they have nothing to do with deciding the title of a film?"
These stray dogs expressed concern that while action is being initiated against them for causing nuisance by barking or chasing vehicles on the streets, nothing was being done to curb humans from behaving like them. The canine community pointed out that the release of a high-profile film is always preceded by a stay order from the court, initiated by some guy hungering for 15 minutes of fame. "Then there are who vandalise multiplexes and hotels on the pretext of protest," the dogs pointed out. "How come these mobs didn't offer to storm the Taj or the Oberoi to fight terrorists and rescue the hostages? How come their anger and bravado is restricted only to damaging public property?" Finally, the slum dogs concluded, "It's we who should feel insulted about being equated with humans!"
