#WTF Ranting Series 3

In Hindi there is a term called “drushta Neta” literally meaning “visionary leader”. Ironically, the definition now means, “Neta jisne apne ku-karmo ki kalikh apne career par lagai hai aur jise ab aam admi ki nazar nahi lagti”. If you are an international reader of my blog you would not understand one bit of that statement and if you are from Americas, you simply would not understand irony. The above translated in English means: A leader who has blackened his career graph with his own corrupt deeds and is immune to public outcry.

Elections come and elections go and what remains are the freaking posters. Literal meaning of these posters has been given below to better understand how common man interprets this visual pollution.

Celebrating a politician’s birthday was considered vile enough. But, they overkilled it with Dogs actually. Now Imagine this poster to be a politician’s celebration. The biggest chutiya hogs the limelight in the poster and is usually the subject of the poster and smaller chutiyas are assorted across the poster to boost their little Egos and to proclaim their arrival in chutiyagiri.

It cuts across parties and has a very natural human feel to it. That is their little democratic circle if secular – for the chutiya by the chutiya of the chutiya.

Ok there have been enough expletives to fill an entire Rodies form now. So I need to stop. But you do get the point of the post right. Please stop this visual pollution.

To all the political parties who print and post such posters : Screw You.

The #SlapGate. SRK Vs. Shrish Kunder

 

Yes. Today’s rant is about famous Bollywood personalities slapping away each other to fame.

The shoe throwing in Iraq created a domino effect and every tom dick and harry worth their flip-flops were throwing shoes at politicians. But shoe throwing was soon to become a stereotype. People got so used to throwing shoes that at some point in time, Mayawati decided to have shoes thrown at her by a number of people and got a special plane from Mumbai flown in to U.P full of shoes. People were throwing in pairs and she would soon have a wardrobe full.

Its rare to see a politician throw his own chair, instead he chooses another one!

Then came the random spurts of chair throwing, bickering, kick boxing and what not among politicians. They contemplated a whole sports bill for the same. But, BCCI wanted to stay out of it. Bats, ball and stumps can make a mess out of a house of commons or lords for that matter.

Gen next pepsi / coke drinking young enthusiastic politically active common youth decided to innovate politician insulting phenomenon and decided to use the psychology of touch. SLAPS. That was the best way to get close to a politician and get in to lime light too. Ala Rakhi sawant way.

A hero was born!

Why this kaanke neeche Di?

So something new was in town and everyone wanted a piece of the pie. Slapping was the in thing. Remember sometime back film stars getting caught by customs at Mumbai airport was the in thing? This was the latest entrant in the world of politics. But power and glamour industries work hand in hand they say.

The king khan SRK slapped shirish kunder, husband of his ex-good friend Farah Khan and a close confidante of his once friend now turned fiend Salman Khan.

How can he slap me!

So, why did SRK really hit Shrish Kunder?

1. Shirish literally asked khan, “Tees Maar, Khan” ?

2. Shirish cracked 500 G.one Ra.One jokes.

3. Shirish asked SRK to be his chammak challo!

4. SRK thought what the hell, its Shirish anyways. A soft target.

5. SRK was upset that an imbecile shares his alphabets as name S.R.K / S.K

Whatever the reasons. SRK’s actions will have no reactions whatsoever because TOI have reported that Shrish was stalking SRK from the moment he entered the party. As if Shrish had no better things to do in a freakin party. Well, bollywood stars their flip-flops and the slaps. who can tell what really goes on. All we can do is have a laugh or two.

Chori karna paap hai!
