Akbaruddin Owaisi – Using hatred as a political tool

Happen to hear Akbaruddin Owaisi’s hate spitting misanthropic oratory exhibition….. What a creepy scoundrel!…. and he really enjoys swimming in his own venemous vomit….. No… don’t misunderstand me…. I don’t support togadia…. but as an Indian you are bound to feel bad when someone questions the secular nation that nurtured us all….. When I listen to him I don’t see a politician or an orator … Continue reading Akbaruddin Owaisi – Using hatred as a political tool

Asaram – Latest Godman to inject Venom

Our world has many of them….. But not always does some one moron try such foul stinking view point to get mileage and publicity…… or he must just be on dopes…. He claims that the girl who lost her life to the wretchedness of a few lusting lunatics should have fallen on their feet and chanted the “Saraswathi Mantra” and called them Bhaiyya (Brother in … Continue reading Asaram – Latest Godman to inject Venom

An Open Letter to 2013

Hi 2013…

2012-2013-pic11Yet another year gets smothered by its successor….. the world rejoices….. the hope that the new year will wipe out everything dreadful…. turn them into easily forgettable bite size memories…… don’t worry…. we now have the peace of mind of surviving another year… with many promises given that we could never keep….. with many futile attempts to be selfless…… we are ready to happily embrace you….

In 2012 we saw the world suffocate from unshed tears…. countless smiles were mercilessly shot down…. we witnessed respect and honor battered and bruised publicly…. yes it is true we have very short memories…. at least about things that don’t directly matter to us….

We faithfully and without regret forget the pains that others have to endure …. Dear 2013 you should know… our ability to discard any probability of seeing ourself in a victim’s place is indeed commendable… that could very well be the skill that always keeps us going…. that ability to forget and move on…. We know you must be smiling…. but that is true…

When the world did not End on dec 21 2012… Or did it..?

Dec 21 2012 is now in the past…. People feel a sense of triumph now for no special action of theirs. But then many folks I guess feel good when they know about a doom ahead that their senses can happily look forward to because they don’t have any reason to believe that it will happen…. I don’t know much about the Mayan calendar and … Continue reading When the world did not End on dec 21 2012… Or did it..?

Rape.. Respect.. Reformation.. Responsibility…

Before we cry out for capital punishment, public chop ceremonies on rapists and more…. we should look at how women are treated in our societies…. the root cause of a rape happening is not just the lustful whims of a few…. it is much more monstorous than that and more deep rooted into our societies and affects each one of us…. we are all victims … Continue reading Rape..

A Prank that took a life

Pranks are fun some say…. but when it gets tragic the world for many does not remain the same again…. I still remember the voice of the nurse (jacintha saldanha) in duty when the aussie pranksters called in posing as queen to know more about  Kate Middleton’s baby…. As I heard it being aired on morning TV no one would have thought it would all end … Continue reading A Prank that took a life
