Bollywood Celebrities as shameless as Politicians ?

Today I was watching news channels and for a change they were united in showing the same breaking news - The "Irresponsible behaviour" of UP government and "the Carnival trip" they took across 5 nations when Muzzaffarnagar was still burning and riot victims were suffering in cold and misery of losing everything they had, including loved ones and livelihood.

Seriously, as one of my teachers Mr.D used to advocate, these Shameless politicians deserved the harsh Sharia law to be imposed on them and be publicly prosecuted. Often I felt that maybe my professor was being harsh but now it does not seem so, when the government can be so apathetic towards death of more than 80 children and many more suffering in those camps which lack basic amenities for human survival.

Ok, Agreed, as an Indian, maybe all these acts by poiliticans do not surprise me ... But what about the so called privileged Bollywood Personalities who took part in the Safai festival ?

1. Will they do anything for money ?
2. Should they not follow all the righteousness and moral values they depict on movies ?
3. If they had committed to take part in the Saifai festival before Muzaffarnagar riots took place, what did they do with the paid money ? Why not donate one show's earnings to those victims for ensuring proper food and shelter in the present winter ?
4. Or Have they become as shameless as the politicians because they know that their films will be a hit no matter what ?
5. Aren't they citizens of this country any more to feel bad for their fans and fellow country mates?

As human beings even bollywood personalities who took part in those celebrations have a moral responsibilty and are equally shameless as our Indian Politicians ! Perhaps it would have been a great example of their character and duty towards this country if they had declined to participate in the Ruling Party's debauchery carnival at such a sensitive time or instead donate the money they got for the Muzaffarnagar victims. Seriously the Bollywood personalities who participated in that Carnival dissappoint us - Some of those so called stars who performed in Saifai festival were - Salman Khan, Madhuri Dixit and many others according to news channels. Ashamed of them ! Seriously !

Nice way to begin a New Year !

We met in 2005 when we were around 18 years old. Due to our common entrance test scores, we found ourselves at a new college together. We were unsure of so many things like college culture, teachers, placements etc. But we were lucky to have found the people we liked and who made the journey of 4 years a pleasurable and enjoyable learning experience.

In first year, all group formation stages happened i.e Initial meetings, getting-to-know-each-other periods, forming of opinions, judging, small silly fights, times spent in studying together, eating together, roaming and shopping etc. helped in creating a bond and trust between us girls.
We understood and accepted our idiosyncrasies and enjoyed them by pulling each others legs about it !

The peer learning that I had in this group was amazing. Every person helped directly or indirectly to help others improve on their weak points ! And it is a learning that continues even today ! We have been together for almost 9 years and in constant touch even when life's pressure of Job and Marriage are on us !

A best way to start a new year is to meet old friends ! Meeting them assures us of the existence and nurturing of a bond that humans need and should value ! They help us to assess our growth in terms of maturity, physical changes, changes in our method of thinking, our distractions, our priorities and changes that have happened in us for good or bad and provide us a great source of emotional resilience to face any kind of challenge.

Thanks to Shwe, Nee and Sou, this bond is continuing even today and hope it continues for a long long time ! Thanks for a wonderful new start to a new year girls and the continuing tradition of Shwe's gifts for us for each new year !! Love you all !!!
