Time to wake up this thread. It shouldn't die out without ample discussions taking place. We all have something to put forth on this front.
Agree with Vijay to an extent. I won't say whether Amir is an actor who's been doing all the good stuff or the others are not, but, yes, I'd agree that his work, and the last season of SMJ did a good job, even though it was a bubble which had to burst because of the government inactivity and deep rooted corruption, but it did a good job, and I hope most of you agree with this.
Maybe, things happening, after the episodes were aired were co-incidences, and the works on the legislations had been in place for long, but, still, the timings of these legislations to come out of the papers and drafts and see the light of the day makes me believe that the episodes have been quite thought provoking like with the last seasons airing of episode on Manual Scavenging, we got law to legally abolish it. Then with the episode regarding the generic drugs, a number of drugs have seen a reduction in their prices, like for example, a Schedule H drug that my dad has been prescribed (missing a single dosage of which is such lethal that it can cause life threatening situation), which he started buying for around Rs. 60-65 when he started it around 25 years ago, the price of which rose to Rs. 265 around 2-3 years back, suddenly declined and came down to only Rs. 150.
Similarly, the first episode of this season, saw abolishing of the much debated two finger test, and adoption of alternative scientific methods for such testing. I won't comment on other episodes this season, because, honestly, I didn't watch any of them because I didn't find the time to watch.
So, as I can comprehend, the episodes and issues brought up by the SMJ team, I believe they are doing a great job with highlighting so many issues we common people face in our everyday lives. I mean, there are hundreds of issues which are there but not all of us know about, so, atleast with the help of this programme, we get to know about these issues. I'd like to ask, how many of us ever knew about the two finger test? Or how many of us ever bothered about the manual scavenging practices that were prevalent even at the New Delhi Railway station around a couple of years back, and we could see people walking in and collecting with their hands, at times bare hands, what we don't even want too see, and we so proudly flush down the western-styled lavatories (as are called by Indian Railways) - we, in our office call it takht-e-ta'oos 
(don't want to piss off any Mughal successors, if any, among us), let alone collect and remove it?
As far as Amir charging Rs. 3 crores for each episode, I believe we don't question this when he takes an amount much higher than this for each film he does, do we? It's his job, and this is what he works for! He isn't there for doing charity, neither did he say or claim so, so, this is a plain sick remark that he's charging 3 crores for each episode. As one of out hindi proverb goes - Ghoda ghaas se dosti karega toh khayega kya? - translators and translitarators are much welcome for translating and transliterating this. 
And even if they are giving out oversimplified resolutions for complex world problems, this is not their job. This is what the government, the parliament, the assemblies and the PM, MP's and MLA's, bureaucrats are for. Why are we paying them if we expect some actor to suggest solutions for our complex problems.
Being a Democratic country anyone can say anything!
