They are the prime reason behind increasing crimes against women and creating a criminal society for future. <BR/><BR/> You are questioning why Aishwarya Rai. I know I am not completely fair...but she is the face of bollywood for sometime and someone from her fraternity has to take the blame along with media. She has been made a woman icon in india by our media and obviously she doesn't mind taking fruits of this image whenever possible. So far so good. <BR/><BR/>But if her own history in relationships is not clean and has done objectionable scenes just before marriage and in some people's thinking DO NOT deserve to be role model for girls and still keep coming in front of TV media as "Bhartiya Naari" then I think someone needs to tell her history and deeds. <BR/><BR/>She knows that she doesn't deserve padamshree this year...but took it graciously neverthless. She knows that for this year, padamshree was won by 93 others and there were 10 people who won Padam Vibhushan which is higher than padamshree as an award. But when media ONLY reported her name (and Akshay's) on winning the award and interviewed ONLY her and ignored other 133 then I didn't hear her cribbing about NDTV media's shoddy journalism. She jumped to first flight to come to Delhi to dance for NDTV's 7 wonders of India program, as if she knows more about Indian culture than those who live and breath in it. <BR/><BR/>There is this love and nangapan between bollywood and media. As I said before they work together in jugalbandi and hard to separate. The bollywood is desperate to show their faces and designer dresses on TV for publicity and media needs their juicy stories. <BR/><BR/>They both are busy in MAKING MONEY at all costs. The concept of EARNING MONEY no longer exists.Anil Kumarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07185075142594811893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-28230207675808491462009-04-10T04:27:00.000+05:302009-04-10T04:27:00.000+05:30@RajlakshmiYou said "Yes everything is in our mind...@Rajlakshmi<BR/><BR/>You said "Yes everything is in our mind."<BR/><BR/>There is term used in computing world called WYSIWYG which translates to WHAT-YOU-SEE-IS-WHAT-YOU-GET. This WYSIWYG phenomenon affects mind more than anything else. <BR/><BR/>And there is a famous saying "WHAT GOES AROUND, COMES AROUND". It's not about rotation of earth.<BR/><BR/>The results of media's role are already out...worst kind of crimes are erupting against women. Everyone thinks he/she is immune to the heinous crimes until it strikes them real hard. By that time it's too late. <BR/><BR/>You also said "Hrithik married at the time of Dhoom-2. why such hypocrisy". <BR/><BR/>It's not as black and white as you think. Because the nature has not made a man and woman equal in terms of their physical abilities. They are equal in mental capacity and infact women are more focussed and responsible than men on loads of other things in our society. But a woman has to bear lot more effort, pain and responsibility if she indulges in a relationship with man. If she gets pregnant by just having some adventure, she has to go through lot more physically than a man has to. And it doesn't stop after 9 months..it actually begins after 9 months.<BR/><BR/>That's why this hypocracy about men. <BR/><BR/>Privately it doesn't matter what an individual does...whether Hrithik practised dhoom-II kissing scene with Aishwarya whole night, before actually giving that scene in front of camera or his wife Suzzane was practising Monica Lewinski act with her driver Himmat Singh in the back seat of car having tinted glass. No one care and I am sure Himmat Singh won't spill beans.<BR/><BR/>Some of these men even walk away and deny their child. Remember it all starts with a simple kiss. <BR/><BR/>Imran Khan denied for several years his child with Sita White, Vivian Richards didn't stay with her daughter after his adventure with Nina Gupta, Sanjay Gandhi would have left Menka Gandhi high and dry but because of threat from his Sikh father he was forced to marry Menka. There are loads of other examples.<BR/><BR/>If you read Vivian Richards autobiography, he says that his father also had two wives. He still lives with Miriam...his first wife. <BR/>For him it didn't matter to have a child from Nina as he was lonely at that time. Just imagine how that grown up child must be thinking NOW and what kind of respect her parents can get from her. Western societies are full of such examples.<BR/><BR/>Other day Nina gupta was mentioning the emptiness she feels for being not in a long term relationship still makes her sad. <BR/><BR/>Life is not as simple as being portrayed by media with the help of bajaaru bollywood heroines. And they send wrong message to innocent girls.<BR/><BR/>Shobha madam was telling something on the lines of Maa ki laadli bigad gayi hai...and she is here to stay. Don't remember in what context she said. But if she is with media and bajaaru actresses of last 10 years then I must say that it sounds very pleasant to ears, if you belong to elite class and is a great politically correct statement. But if the same "laadli" is from a poor uneducated family and indulges in bollywood behaviour...then life is not going to be easy for her. And there are millions of poor souls in this socially divided country who unfortunatley are in majority (8 is to 1) as we speak.Anil Kumarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07185075142594811893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-73177898280328147702009-04-09T22:08:00.000+05:302009-04-09T22:08:00.000+05:30I totally agree with Priyadarshini on one thing.

Those who glorify men as playbo...Priyadarshni ji. <BR/> Those who glorify men as playboy are actually media sl_ts. All of them act as anchors on national TV such as NDTV, Star news.<BR/> <BR/> And the same female in media on TV media work overtime to glorify other sl_ts in bollywood. <BR/><BR/> Loads of them have given onscreen kisses and they are 3rd rated "kapade utaaru" heroine. But some of them are portrayed as role model for this generation in news media. <BR/><BR/>On SPECIAL OCCASSIONS like Independence day, Diwali, KaruaChauth or programs like 7 wonders of India on NDTV, these media people in "jugalbandi" with Bollywood bear the Indian flag, wear traditional dresses and adore traditional Indian things...Rest of the year they act as sl_ts.<BR/><BR/>If these women are kept out of TV spotlight then I think no one is bothered if they have 3 partners or 5. No one hounded Amitabh bachhan, Jaya or Rekha when that triangle was brewing up in the 70's. It stayed in gossip magazines like Stardust etc. <BR/><BR/>I never heard Pratima Puri or Salma Sultan on Doordarshan news discussing how Amitabh's hand was around Rekha's waist and Jaya tried to pull him away. <BR/><BR/>BECAUSE people were not subjected to watch that BREAKING NEWS every single day, it didn't affect the kids with these complex realities of life. But the kind of role media and bollywood are playing in shaping this country will have dire consequences in next decade or so. <BR/><BR/>We will have loads of western ills in our society, but unlike western countries, no resources and system to help the victims of western ills. These things are still in its infancy...But just watch out the net result of this "Nangapan" in next 10-20 years beamed on TV every single day.<BR/><BR/>Take the American example. They thought by bringing BLACKS from Ghana and other african nations they can become rich without hurting their backs. They did become rich and exploited blacks for 200 years. But now if you talk to small town Americans on how they feel when their white daughters sometimes making black guys as their life partners. And you can see the pain in their eyes and the best answer they could give is that that's the legacy of slavery. Not to mention that interracial kids always find it diffiuclt to adjust with either blacks or whites. If bollywood meets hollywood...you will see some of that inter-racial tamasha spilling over to India. <BR/><BR/>If we glorify multiple relationships on TV then what is the difference between animal and human beings. And what's the affect of all this on 8 or 10 year olds who are the number one TV addicts. <BR/><BR/>Does someone who has a pet bitch allow that animal to go and have some fun with fellow dogs on the Delhi roads during mating season. Their season is only for few weeks a year. The human beings have their season for 365 days a year.<BR/><BR/>I hope that gives a different view. May be a crude view but neverthless truth in many sense.Anil Kumarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07185075142594811893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-85502374814165994952009-04-09T10:50:00.000+05:302009-04-09T10:50:00.000+05:30where are u shobhaaa..? its already thursday! anil...where are u shobhaaa..? its already thursday! anil kumar, WHAT THE HELL IS THE PROBLEM IF A WOMAN HAS MANY RELATIONSHIPS OR SHARE AN ONSCREEN KISS. u speak like such a chauvinist! wonder why men are glorified as PLAYBOYS and females labelled SLUTS.Priyadarshini Karanjaihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02961699876257227829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-60593370281352755112009-04-09T09:43:00.000+05:302009-04-09T09:43:00.000+05:30"two bihari bigmouths" hehe awesome.

Sprouting from a culture that has seen women in kitchen for more than a century, men take it as their birth right that they are better than women in a lot of aspects which is a lot of crap.<BR/><BR/>But let me ask you something.... what are you commenting on the women who go blindly go behind parties for the short remunerations that the party gives them than for their own rights. How can Sanjay Dutt's wife take it in such easy strides the words of her husband when he says that he will make his wife to contest in his place and he will campign for her.<BR/><BR/>Isnt it like using her when she is needed.

Wah bete...hats o...Tu tto bahut shayanaa hai rey... Wah bete...hats off bhi karta hai aur jungle bhi bhejta hai. <BR/><BR/>Obviously many of us have committed sins and therefore won't be eligible to go to jungle. But unlike role models from bollywood these sins do not affect masses in this country and sins from ordinary person (if committed carefully) will die with them. <BR/><BR/>But things which are in public domain...such as change of partners every 2 years, giving kissing scenes just before marriage be it Aishwarya or bigdi aullad Kareena kapoor...Their innocent sins have been multiplied by other breed of sinners called journalists from TV news channels. They encash on these by showing them numerous time every single day. <BR/><BR/>Bloody hell...looks like eis hamaam mein sabhi Nange hain...bollywood and journalists. Barkha Dutt bhi Hamam mein....just imagine. She showed Akshay/Twinkle unbutton saga as the final punch on "Bust Stop here" program. Sorry...I think it was buck stop here.<BR/><BR/>Baba RamDev seems like a good candidate to go to jungle since he most likely meets your criteria. Unless I am not aware that Brinda Karat has a secret crush on him and is suffering and crying silently behind close doors. Agar Baba RamDev jungle chale gaye tto yoga kaun sikhayega ??? Saale kabootar... tu tto Oregon ki vaadiyon mein baitha hua hai. Amar Singh ko yoga ke naam per namaaz padhni aati hai.<BR/><BR/>Bachhan saahab ko criticize karke hum jaise sinners ko bhi chot lagti hai jaalim...tu kya samjhega. Because he indeed is a good, descent, down to earth man. Yeh Amar Singh ka debt thoda hurt kar gayaa. Now we have read the pain he was in, I think he will be alright if he can stay neutral or at least, keep quiet on Abhishek's average work and Aishwarya's padamshree....I am sure he will be in perfect harmony with his family and his unknown critiques. <BR/><BR/>Manglik nahin bhi ho per jo madamji ne dhoom-II mein kiya...woh Amar Singh ji ko bhi achha nahin lagaa. Namaaz ke time Ajam khan ko bataa rahe the ki, how low he (Amar Singhji) felt. Agar Sonia Gandhi aur Manmohan Singh aisa karte...Amar Singh ji would have ignored it. But if her own daughter-in-law does something like that...it's unbearable.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04826965391076870706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-19744257609227996742009-04-09T04:05:00.000+05:302009-04-09T04:05:00.000+05:30Maybe, just maybe AB is indebted to this politicia...Maybe, just maybe AB is indebted to this politician, and AB is being honorable with his loyalty inform of his payment to the debt he took from this Shylock. <BR/><BR/>He had no choice but take the money when he needed it. You can claim it was a bad choice but.. and then find me a politician, and metaphorically "a person" who has not been struck by the sickness of "corruption"... <BR/><BR/>So all of you who sit on a pedestal and shame AB and his family I challenge you to say you have never been dishonest, never made a mistake, never had significant others before marriage, never lied, never committed a sin!!!!! <BR/><BR/>If you have never, then my hats off to you, you should all be taking Sanyas in the deep jungles somewhere not in this modern Indian society where corruption is widespread, a way life for many and everyone gets caught in it, even the innocent bystanders! <BR/><BR/>I guess this society is not deserved of your presence.

Otherwise I am out of Samajwaadi party and Mulayam can take care of his party.<BR/><BR/>Amar Singh Today - I can leave this world but not Samajwaadi party.<BR/><BR/>What does this tell about Prannoy Roy, Barkha Dutt on NDTV who have always loved this leader for SELECTED secular values. <BR/><BR/>What does this tell about Amitabh Bachhan who has the headline on his blog (Main hoon unke saath, khade jo rakhte seedhi apani reed). In AB's case it is simple. This GREAT man is somehow entangled by a crooked politician Amar Singh who knew the political milage he can get by helping AB in the past. He is getting the dividends of it at the cost of AB. Now he should be careful not to destroy his own image by trying to project Abhishek as a great actor...Most people know he is below average. Least said about her daughter-in-law Aishwarya will be better because everyone knows her past history and she is not "doodh ki dhuli" to be a role model for today's girl. <BR/><BR/>After being snubbed on her own show "WE THE PEOPLE" by certain people on excessive coverage on Varun Gandhi which was shown 240 times I felt that my criticism of media in my crude and blunt way has some effect. At least they have realized their STUPID JOURNALISM and not showing that news just because it was juicy. But how long will it last??? probably for few days.<BR/><BR/>Isn't it time to beat the shit out of these type of journalists who are biased towards certain parties.Anil Kumarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07185075142594811893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-10134746019451895812009-04-08T18:47:00.001+05:302009-04-08T18:47:00.001+05:30Pa B... should now retire.

Sonakachi is a myth???

Its better when a man speaks of woman rights than a woman speaking about her ilk. <BR/><BR/>It looks believable, and anyways, hyperventilating woman are not taken that seriously. <BR/><BR/>I would want woman to take up portfolios like coal.. petroleum... defense... Environment... I feel they should leave the Social Justice, Home, Woman and Child ... all to men.Harishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12609011423304441643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-24778495678590741062009-04-08T16:37:00.000+05:302009-04-08T16:37:00.000+05:30Shobha,Another good write up ,Amitabh jee accept t...Shobha,<BR/>Another good write up ,Amitabh jee accept thsi that u have llost this time and there is no looking back now,<BR/>I was surprised to see there were so many lines wasted on Two Bihari,No need of that at all.<BR/><BR/>Education and only Education is the only way we can ensure growth in every sphere of todays market for womens.As far as political parties are related they must go through http://www.meerahsanyal.in/?page_id=2, then they would no what manifesto is all about. <BR/><BR/>Hope you had a good Trip to Delhi,<BR/>your next post will be on that journalist,will also contain Amir SRK Meet and on Indian Cricket team (just expecting)Mayankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14987413923694211330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-57462957993657398442009-04-08T05:23:00.000+05:302009-04-08T05:23:00.000+05:30Trust me most of them are thinking on contesting o...Trust me most of them are thinking on contesting or getting groomed to be in next Miss India 2010 .... <BR/><BR/>Like you mentioned in your previous post Malaika and Madhavan did suck big time ....

But I must say, I have handled admiration for my work along with their initial skeptical looks. What I am saying is if you do well in your field (and you have to be better than the average men to be considered even ok) you will attain their approval, not that anyone needs it but it sure does make things lot easier. <BR/>Then again I am talking about educated minds here, who to begin with aren't extremely biased against women. It must be far worse in politics which has for centuries been rattled with gender bias.Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10505137423128823662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-677785079608739872009-04-07T23:08:00.000+05:302009-04-07T23:08:00.000+05:30Introspection you are too quick to judge people it...Introspection you are too quick to judge people it seems. I would read more if his posts before coming to judgement on AB, especially on what he does and does not do to help the poor his staff doing the writing for him yada yada yada. Let's remember we all have Egos .... Yours truly included. The blogosphere allows the writer to truly express themselves without editorial scraping. That is what bloggers including AB , De and myself do here. We express ourselves how we see best. I think AB writes very well oh his own and deserve credit for that. If he has felt attacked for 40 years and has taken it silently and now feels compelled to respond to the outof control press he has the right to and should be respected for that. If he is a different view on Slumdog let's respect his opinion and not belittle him. Freedom of speech and expression doesn't give us the moral authoriity to do that. You and I don't know AB personally. And yes here we do go again...... :)Theyoginmehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04994599670878778861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-20061102989349574492009-04-07T20:52:00.000+05:302009-04-07T20:52:00.000+05:30Shobha, maybe I cannot even begin empathizing with...Shobha, maybe I cannot even begin empathizing with you on gender issues, but it surprises me that you are so bitter about men! Why o why? It comes across as blatantly vindictive, to say the least. <BR/> <BR/>If the supposedly male chauvinist business magazine editor said women are incapable of deciphering balance sheets, why do you have to view it from a sexist perspective? Maybe, he was unprejudiced and was plainly stating an observation. Just maybe. I agree what he said was not politically correct, but then who is these days (e.g. an interesting and unpredictable lady with a lastname that starts with a D). And plus what he said was obviously off-the-record!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16194624607754667734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-83974009044383545352009-04-07T20:40:00.000+05:302009-04-07T20:40:00.000+05:30Kala i didn't read ur comments earlier.. i agree w...Kala i didn't read ur comments earlier.. i agree with u fully ...ur thought combine wth mine i guess answers Amitabh's problems with his life... ya u aplogise to Thakrey and here u write a script to take out ur frustration with life....Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02016236005714727220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-4450221268635776412009-04-07T20:35:00.000+05:302009-04-07T20:35:00.000+05:30Hi first thing first before everyone jumps on the ...Hi first thing first before everyone jumps on the bandwagon of why I am doing this - I DO read Amitabh’s blog and also watch hindi soaps here in UK as they assure me that I am right in what I am doing in my life… God reading the comments left by his EF on Amitabh’s blog is like dipping into a cheesiest dip with my spicy nachos lol they are so cheesier that the French cheese I get here is blushing (taking some writing tips from Shobha)<BR/><BR/>It is interesting to see that a public figure like Amitabh gets offended so easily by any tom, dick n harry writing abt him… If he is so much worried about his name not being used then he shud stop paying heed to these people and gaining more media attention..or is it a planned move by his publicist to keep him in news and help his forthcoming movie by RGV on a similar subject.. by giving sucha BIG BHASHAN to editor of Mr. India (pun intended) what is trying to gain… I was bored reading his response..i am sure Shobha u had to have few martinis n bloody marys to gulp doewn the heavy stuff… or did u just bin it … I personally feel it’s a conspiracy..Amitabh pays these morons to write this crap and then he replies and all are happy including TOI for selling more copies.. and Amitabh getting money for his temple donations for feeding ppor ahhhhhh No body cares abt these views of SM here in west and Amitabh is unknown to all…<BR/><BR/> I am sure he has kept a team of professional to go thru all the crap on him every morning..and then he writes this in his spare time… or I feel its his age catching up… and the icing and cherry on the truffle cake is the comments lefts by his EF..goddddd aaathoooooooooooooooooooooo <BR/><BR/>I think I am becoming Amitabh here tee hee….Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02016236005714727220noreply@blogger.com
