india's 15 seconds of fame!
First there was the whole liz hurley wedding fiasco... now people are burning effigies of Richard Gere and Shilpa Shetty... *sighs* its so saddening to see this is what the country has come to.. oh, i almost forgot narayanmurthy and sachin tendulkar's controversies....
Its alarming that in almost every single Indian website.. this seems to be the most important news.. thas much importance is given to trivial incidents like these... and suddenly warrants are filed, cases are moved... all for what... a cake cut... or a peck on the cheek... where is the law when it comes to rape of a minor or armed robbery...
Protest is fine... but I would think the people would need a much worthy cause to fight for... fight for the safety of a girl walking alone in Delhi not against a wedding of two people that dont even stay in the country... for cyring out loud!!!
Such is the state of affairs indeed!
Now who said India is an emerging super power... look back at all this! ;)

ya, i so agree. and while we are it, can people please stop blaming "provocative" dressing for all the attack against women!!!!
Hi Sindu, we have never spoken but guess we know each other. And blame by blog hopping on not wanting to work on a saturday afternoon :)
'provocative dressing' is a man's way of blame shifting... how can a 8yr old dress provocativly...
we rest our case aruna!!! :)
and if u are who i think you are... awesome!!! a big hi and a hug! :)
"Provocation" is the lamest excuse one can give. But do you have a solution for this? If so, make it heard, people might be listening.
