U don't deserve space here as u have used filthy word for such a renowned personality of literary world.<br />Shoba ji shares the literary dias with K.Singh. She has also been outspoken about sex in her books and writings. Both should be admired for their frankness and literary skill. People in India are hypocrites who enjoy sex in bedrooms so much and pose as moralists in public. The proof is continuously inflating population. Atleast these two writers have clean conscience.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17702074810777102877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-82785439082818921122010-01-21T04:49:06.393+05:302010-01-21T04:49:06.393+05:30@ Teju : keep out & stay put,don't defile ...@ Teju : keep out & stay put,don't defile this space.Can't tolerate a<br />woman worth her salt,can you???Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03452285988979913485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-24169560116718662892010-01-20T19:59:44.656+05:302010-01-20T19:59:44.656+05:30People like teju should be kicked out of here ...I...People like teju should be kicked out of here ...I suggest that evryone who is using abusive language on this blog should be bannedROHAN KARKHANIShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02089447159848397647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-67538689227940324172010-01-20T18:08:18.840+05:302010-01-20T18:08:18.840+05:30Well , let's admit it ma'am .

Backward hypocrite. <br /><br />Who are you to comment on a matter as private as Shobhaa De's children. Somebody can even turn around and say that if your parents had not had you, then the world would have been spared a cheap, boorish, nasty-mouthed moron like you.<br /><br />And if you think that De is so immoral and horrible why on earth do you visit her blog. For cheap thrills no?<br /><br />Only perverted, desperate idiots like you would come visit the blog of a woman who you think is a slut and then gain some crude, sadistic pleasure by insulting her in such vulgar terms.<br /><br />At the end of the day, Shobhaa De is a nationally renowned writer, fashion designer and magazine editor. National and international media carry her columns and interview her. The who's who and elite of the coutnry accept and socialize with her. And you are just an ill-mannered nobody. You must have a whole lot of arrogance to comment on somebody who is so superior to you.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12396456427189824285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-61445271754248869262010-01-20T15:04:37.839+05:302010-01-20T15:04:37.839+05:30well said cherian. this horrible so calld writer i...well said cherian. this horrible so calld writer is bg RANDI of all times. shobhi baby hy dint ur hubby use KS, t least populatin in india would have come down by 6 numberstejuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05150238045425651340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-10825726979995239992010-01-20T14:33:18.110+05:302010-01-20T14:33:18.110+05:30if there is anyone who could beat old sardarji pan...if there is anyone who could beat old sardarji pants down at his game, its YOU. fantastic piece. the flow of your pen is incredible.Vinay.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03021448320910578001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-39421235979818829532010-01-20T12:16:07.037+05:302010-01-20T12:16:07.037+05:30kushwant singh has always been just YUKKKKK for me...kushwant singh has always been just YUKKKKK for me...!!! and you praising him...?????supriyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07710736239095248419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-42670909189700174442010-01-20T11:06:33.008+05:302010-01-20T11:06:33.008+05:30I remember when I was a kid (i guess 12), I had pi...I remember when I was a kid (i guess 12), I had picked up a Kushwant Singh book from somewhere.

In spades! <br /><br />His writing was adequet. Though what would I know.. since I still cannot spell adequet and use punctuation badly; I suppose I should not be passing judgement on his writing style. <br /><br />Oh well, anyway as a young girl reading the "forbidden" Khushwant Singh taught me something about not taking ourselves too seriously. There was always someone around to cut us all down to size and laugh at us eventually. We may as well laugh at ourselves first! Yeah before we got famous and Khushwant laughed at us in his imitible way.<br /><br />I had no idea he was still writing. Wonderful. I hope he is a irreverant as ever.<br /><br />Too bad about Illustrated Weekly being shut down. It was a family favorite.<br /><br />Osho might have been a visionary.. perhaps. But his cult is scary because it is ... a cult.Another Kiran In NYChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15949641865013106368noreply@blogger.com
