Shabana Azmi tweets,``We condemn the arrest of Anna Hazare and his team and the ban on the proposed fast. Right to protest peacefully is a democratic right.''

Photographer Atul Kasbekar too tweets, ``You may not agree with Anna ideology or his methods. That's fine. But you cannot take away his right to peaceful protest.''

Farhan Akhtar who always been vocal about his political views tweets,``The Indian citizen has the right to protest peacefully. Anna's arrest is unconstitutional and shows symptoms of an authoritarian mindset.''

The government apparently has arrested Anna Hazare fearing violence. But director Shekhar Kapur says,``There was no threat of violence, there was none last time. People are thronging to Delhi to support agitation against corruption.''

Vishal Dadlani tweets, "They've arrested Anna Hazare. Bad move, Government. BIG mistake! You've made yourselves look dictatorial, and Anna, even more of a martyr!
