Over time, the common man has represented the hopes, aspirations, troubles and perhaps even foibles of the average Indian. Mr. Laxman once said of his Common Man, "I would say he symbolises the mute millions of India, or perhaps the whole world, a silent spectator of marching time." Most of us are common man and most of us would agree that being a common man is no small deal. Common man symbolizes freedom and live freely in free world.
