Friday 13, 2013


What a day it was. On this day India saw sentencing of four accused in the most heinous case of gang rape of a 23 old girl; all the accused were sentenced to death. In contrast, the day also saw release of Grand Masti - a comedy movie whose plot seems obvious from its name itself. This happened in a country whose National Father once showed us three monkeys - one taught us not to speak bad, another not to hear bad, third told us not to see bad. On one hand we protested the gang rape and talked about Sanskar but on the other we watch a movie which lies on vulgarism. I had seen people using filth language (five of ten words) and they don't care how that going to impact the sub-conscious minds of children.

Anyway, the day also saw Narendra Modi's anointment as the PM candidate of BJP and the Voyager I's exit from the solar system itself. Advani would have been thinking "Wish I could send Modi with Voyager I..."
