Arrrr,
Damn media is up to its antics once again. Stereotypical fashion.
Doing rounds, is the news of "Daniesh Kaneria", the Pakistani Spin Bowler (and a rare Hindu in Pak) making trips to Hindu religious destinations. Obsessed with showing his Indian-ness.
And of course, the scandal about great Indian actor Shakti Kapoor, being caught on tape, lecherously advising an undercover journalist posing as young upcoming actress to shed clothes at drop of coin if she wants to make it to the big screen.
Shakti Kapoor incident was simply shocking. Conservative Indian society might never see some actresses and directors mentioned in the tape with same religious respect as they did earlier. The news of Shakti Kapoor being banned from acting in Indian films comes as no big surprise. Shameful and regretful.
But then, one would say, its not everyday that such covert ops are held. Otherwise be prepared for a loooong list of lowlife jerks who somehow permeated in mainstream media. Its something we all know. Something we all expect.
To further add fuel to the fire, the News Channel undertaking the operation interviewed many upcoming actresses who shouted on the cameras and expressed their disgust. But I tell you, that by their looks, it gave impression that they had done the "sleeping around" part themselves. Well, if that didnt give them any media coverage, then speaking against the same did. Kudos! 3rd grade sleazebags.
Weekly TV viewing has been reduced to about 1 or 2 hours now. But somehow scandals and hype news always catch my eye. We make a good pair.
