NEW DELHI: Amid calls, including at least one from a BJP functionary, to boycott Bollywood star Deepika Padukone's upcoming movie "Chhapaak" for her visit to JNU, information and broadcasting minister Prakash Javadekar said on Wednesday that not just artistes, even a common man can go anywhere to express their opinion and there should be no objections to anyone expressing his opinion.
