Some Uneasy Thoughts, All My Own!

And here are some uneasy thoughts which I would like to share:
       Like some actresses do not allow their photographs to be taken when they grow old. I think Dev Anand should take a cue from them. And he should stop talking of his heroines.
       Like one has to decide whether he should stay young a la Dev Anand or gracefully grow old like Amitabh.
       Like they say everything is that you do or say is autobiographical; and I felt so while writing the lines above!
       Like talking of actresses [this is an old world word, these days everybody is called actor], I have developed healthy respect for Deepika Padukone. I read that she proactively closed her cold war with Katrina.  
       Like sinking of INS Vindhyagiri was a tragic event, so is the crash of the helicopter at Nashik.
       Like I wonder sometimes whether there is a common thread in all these events. The common thread could be sabotage, or it could be corruption.
       Like Raja’s arrest comes so late that one wonders whether the evidence is still available. The slow and steady might win the race, but not if it is the Government.
       Like my morning cup of tea is swallowed with a dose of corruption news flashed on the first page of the newspapers.
       Like the India today is like INS Vindhyagiri. Listed but not yet sunk. Hit by a commercial vessel. Just as Navy did not declare the ship as sunk, our leaders are also turning a ‘Nelson’s Eye’ to the injury inflicted on the nation by corruption.
       Like when I watch Egypt crisis on CNN I feel that this could happen here too.
       And what makes me uncomfortable is that I secretly wish that it should happen here too!
