Now thats.....Entertainment!

Even the McMahons of the wrestling entertainment business couldn't do what Rukh Rukh and his chuddi buddie (langotiya yaar in english for me) director did.

Now it isn't every day that an 'honourable' (haah!) politician indirectly urges the public to go watch a movie. Everyone did their bit and got to their slice of the pie....

Politicians travelling by train isn't a gimmick that was original in India, but in India we seem to love appreciating stunts made by the stars of our film industry and our political scene which isn't any less filmy than the former.

As a lazy bugger I get confused on issues even though I'm in tune with these stunts and chewing the popcorn while watching the idiot box. I still don't get the issue into that tiny malfunctioning brain of mine.

There are various points to this though,

First question why does Rukh Rukh Khan want our neighbour's cricketers and why was he so unhappy with the 'treatment' dished out to them? (Although it was an auction n Rukh Rukh himself didn't bid for them!)

A)Is it because Rukh Rukh feels his floundering knights from the 'Indian Gully Cricket League' would be bolstered by a our neighbour's who lost 3-0 (out of 3 tests), 5-0 (out of 5 ODIs) and the lone gully cricket match to a team which England beat in the Ashes and could prevent a whitewash in the ODIs as well (no disrespect to them!)

B)The captain of our neighbours cricket team called him up and said, "Please Rukh Rukh bhais we wants yous too helps us in salvagings some imaan and izaats (considering we r getting trashed by Ozzies with no Lees, Mcgrath, and warnes) and sos wes reqists yous to creates stupid controversies and takes our side and feel bura for us despite us beings useless (cant add 's' to that)" (hence the stupid traitor remark made by the Crouching Cub and Hidden Tiger of Mumbai's politics)

C) The trailers of his new film weren't being watched that much, so he decided to do something to atleast let people know about it via the media and with the help of the Crouching Cub & Hidden Tiger of our lovely city? His chuddi buddie wont mind

One never knows what Rukh Rukh wants....but its entertaining.... of-course its sad he is now trying to remind people that indeed his last name is Khan in case anyone forgets!

Crouching Cub and Hidden Tiger are kinda facing an image crisis I guess...due to the emergence of another similar character like them, a son of the soil dragon breathing fire and stones...(lets call him enter the dragon for the time being)
In this desperation, competition is high between the 2 clans to prove to us the common people how much each of them cares about our culture,sentiments and etc etc. No wonder that everyone's saying save our tigers!!!!!! Well only 2 left in Mumbai I guess!

To add to their misery, we have a new entrant into the "Haath" wala party train travelers club after "Chi Chi" did the same few years ago...ofcourse he was later being called Chee Chee....but thats a whole other issue.
Unlike what the crouching tiger,hidden tiger or the outcast cousin the dragon, its not important where he came from (not which station but which city...lol) but the prime minister in waiting wanted to alight at the station that read "Peoples Hearts" Too bad no politician seems to be invited there.

He has a plan and that is to drill it into the youth that we are Indians first...fair enough....we must be Indians. In fact we are Indians, but tell me Mr. PM-in-waiting baba, Indians seem to call Calcutta, Kolkatta these days, Madras as Chennai but somehow these same Indians seem ashamed to call Bombay as Mumbai? Nothing wrong in keeping with the times and calling the city its current name no matter who changed it right?

Mumbai may be for all...but guys guys....she isn't a prostitute now is she? That anyone can come here screw some money of her and then courier or even wire it back to states where public money is spent on building statues of elephants of the human and animal kingdom!

Sure freedom is our right and we should enjoy it but with it Indians should remember to respect Mumbai and start calling her by the name for a start....maybe Indians should stop bringing in unnecessary elaborate attempts to UP-ise or Bihar-ise it for a change...just a thought Mr. PM in waiting.....

Oh and one more thing Mr. PM in waiting....whats with the "We must be Indians" sermon and then almost agreeing to form 2 states out of Andhra? Or was it due to some politician singing, "Kya hua tera waada...woh kasam woh iraada!

As a lazy bugger, I dont have the energy to take sides....but if Rukh Rukh, PM Jr and the tigers and dragons of Mumbai actually shut up and do thier jobs instead of telling me about being an Indian by hugging our neighbours or being a Maharashtrian by beating migrants and calling other Indians traitors for thier opinions...maybe just maybe I'll start to believe in them.

I'd like to forget this shit and be lost in my own world, but as a wise man said....There some things you cant forget...for everything else there's Alchohol!

Bye

Jai Hind aani Jai Maharashtra!

  1. I truly admire your ability to see through this nonsense Annie. So many real issues to take up in the city but we preferred to run and stand behind a non-issue just because it involved our favourite star. I would really like to see Mumbaikars take up important issues such as hygiene, save water, enroachment, etc.
